Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · moderate confidence

The WOLF bulk-editor plugin for WordPress contains a path traversal vulnerability (CWE-22) that allows attackers to use '../' sequences in file path parameters to access files outside the intended restricted directory. This improper limitation of pathname to a restricted directory could allow unauthorized file access or disclosure.

MitigationUpdate to the latest version of WOLF bulk-editor if a patch is available, or implement proper input validation that canonicalizes paths and restricts file access to only allowed directories using realpath() checks and whitelist-based validation.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Verify WOLF bulk-editor plugin is installed
    Navigate to WordPress admin dashboard > Plugins > Installed Plugins and look for 'WOLF bulk-editor' or 'Pluginus Wolf Wordpress Posts Bulk Editor And Products Manager Professional' in the plugin list
    Affected if The plugin appears in the installed plugins list
  2. Identify the installed plugin version
    Click on the plugin name/details in the WordPress plugins page to view the installed version number, or inspect the plugin's main PHP file (usually named similarly to the plugin slug) for the 'Version' header in the plugin comment block
    Affected if The displayed version number is lower than 1.0.8.6
  3. Check for vulnerable file operation features
    Look for plugin settings or admin pages related to file import, export, upload, or file path handling. These are typically found under the plugin's menu in the WordPress admin sidebar
    Affected if The plugin provides any functionality that accepts file path parameters and the installed version is below 1.0.8.6
  4. Confirm the path traversal vulnerability condition
    The vulnerability exists when the plugin processes file paths without proper sanitization using realpath() checks. If the plugin is installed and version is below 1.0.8.6, the path traversal risk is present regardless of specific feature usage
    Affected if Installed plugin version is below 1.0.8.6

If the WOLF bulk-editor plugin is installed with a version number lower than 1.0.8.6, the environment is affected by this path traversal vulnerability.
