CVE-2026-13080
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 WPFunnels – Funnel Builder for WooCommerce with Checkout & One Click Upsell plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Local File Inclusion in all versions up to, and including, 3.12.7 via the 'logKey' parameter parameter. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with administrator-level access and above, to include and execute arbitrary .php files on the server, allowing the execution of any PHP code in those files. This can be used to bypass access controls, obtain sensitive data, or achieve code execution in cases where .php file types can be uploaded and included.
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.

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 WPFunnels plugin is installedLog into WordPress admin dashboard and navigate to Plugins > Installed Plugins. Look for WPFunnels in the list. Alternatively, check the file system at /wp-content/plugins/ for a wpfunnels directory.Affected if WPFunnels plugin directory exists in the WordPress installation
-
Check installed WPFunnels versionIn WordPress admin, go to Plugins > Installed Plugins > WPFunnels and view the version number displayed. Or read the main plugin file (e.g., wpfunnels.php) and look for the 'Version' header in the plugin comments.Affected if Installed version is 3.12.7 or lower (any version up to and including 3.12.7)
-
Confirm administrator-level access existsReview WordPress user roles at Users > All Users. Verify if any user accounts have the Administrator role, as this CVE requires administrator-level permissions to exploit.Affected if At least one user account with Administrator role exists on the WordPress site
-
Identify vulnerable endpoint exposureExamine web server logs or traffic for requests to WPFunnels endpoints containing the 'logKey' parameter. Common paths may include ajax handlers or specific funnel-related routes within the plugin.Affected if HTTP requests to WPFunnels endpoints with 'logKey' parameter are present in logs or accessible
The environment is affected if WPFunnels plugin version 3.12.7 or lower is installed on WordPress and the site has administrator-level user accounts, making the LFI via 'logKey' parameter exploitable.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
dbcve · scopedUpdate the WPFunnels plugin to version 3.12.8 or later to remediate this vulnerability. If an update is unavailable, consider disabling the plugin or implementing web application firewall rules to block directory traversal attempts in the 'logKey' parameter.
WPFunnels version 3.12.8 or later
- Log in to the WordPress admin dashboard with administrator privileges
- Navigate to Plugins > Installed Plugins
- Locate 'WPFunnels – Funnel Builder for WooCommerce with Checkout & One Click Upsell' in the plugin list
- Check the current version number displayed under the plugin name
- If the installed version is 3.12.7 or earlier, click 'Update now' if an update is available
