CVE-2025-6381
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedThe BeeTeam368 Extensions plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Directory Traversal in all versions up to, and including, 2.3.4 via the handle_remove_temp_file() function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to perform actions on files outside of the originally intended directory. This vulnerability can be used to delete the wp-config.php file, which can be leveraged into a site takeover.
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 · high confidenceThe BeeTeam368 Extensions WordPress plugin (versions up to 2.3.4) contains a directory traversal vulnerability in the handle_remove_temp_file() function. Authenticated attackers with Subscriber-level permissions can manipulate file paths to delete files outside the intended directory, notably wp-config.php, leading to site takeover.

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 checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Verify if BeeTeam368 Extensions plugin is installedCheck the WordPress plugins directory for the Beeteam368 plugin folder, or query the wp_plugins database table for plugin slugs containing 'beeteam368' or 'vidmov'Affected if Plugin folder exists in /wp-content/plugins/ with 'beeteam368' or 'vidmov' in the name
-
Identify the exact installed versionRead the main plugin PHP file header for 'Version:' value, or query wp_options for option_name containing 'beeteam368' version informationAffected if Version is 2.3.4 or lower, or version field shows < 2.3.5
-
Confirm plugin is activeQuery wp_options table for option_name = 'active_plugins' and check if the Beeteam368 plugin slug is present in the serialized arrayAffected if Plugin appears in the active_plugins option and is not deactivated
-
Check for vulnerable function accessibilityReview the plugin code for handle_remove_temp_file() function and verify it is hooked to an AJAX action (wp_ajax_) or frontend endpoint without capability checks beyond 'read'Affected if handle_remove_temp_file() is accessible to unauthenticated or Subscriber-level users
-
Verify presence of low-privilege user accountsQuery wp_users and wp_usermeta to list users with role 'subscriber' using SELECT u.user_login, u.user_email FROM wp_users u JOIN wp_usermeta m ON u.ID = m.user_id WHERE m.meta_key = 'wp_capabilities' AND m.meta_value LIKE '%subscriber%'Affected if Any Subscriber-level accounts exist in the database
User is affected if the BeeTeam368 Vidmov plugin version is 2.3.4 or lower AND the plugin is active AND the handle_remove_temp_file() function is accessible to users with Subscriber-level permissions.

dbcve · scoped2.3.5
Update the BeeTeam368 Extensions plugin to the latest patched version. If no patch is available, disable and remove the plugin until a fix is released.
Plugin version 2.3.5
- 1. Create a full backup of your WordPress site (database and files) before making any changes
- 2. Navigate to Plugins > Installed Plugins in your WordPress admin dashboard
- 3. Locate the BeeTeam368 Extensions (Vidmov) plugin in the list
- 4. Click 'Update now' if an update to version 2.3.5 or higher is available, or manually upload version 2.3.5 from the WordPress plugin repository
- 5. After updating, verify the plugin version shows 2.3.5 or later in the Plugins list
- 6. Test that the site functionality remains intact
- 7. Consider using a file integrity scanner to confirm wp-config.php and other critical files remain unmodified
