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 · unedited
Blocksy Companion Pro plugin for WordPress before 2.1.47 contains an unauthenticated arbitrary file upload vulnerability that allows attackers to upload executable files by bypassing extension validation in the save_attachments function exposed through the Advanced Reviews feature. Attackers can exploit the Custom Fonts extension's flawed strpos() substring check by uploading double-extension filenames such as shell.woff2.php, causing the validation to pass on the substring match while the web server executes the file as PHP, achieving remote code execution.

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 confidence

The Blocksy Companion Pro plugin before version 2.1.47 has an unauthenticated arbitrary file upload vulnerability in the save_attachments function accessible through the Advanced Reviews feature. The Custom Fonts extension uses a flawed strpos() substring check for extension validation that can be bypassed using double-extension filenames like shell.woff2.php, allowing attackers to upload PHP files that execute on the web server, achieving remote code execution.

MitigationImmediately upgrade Blocksy Companion Pro to version 2.1.47 or later to patch the arbitrary file upload vulnerability. Consider disabling the Advanced Reviews feature and Custom Fonts extension until the patch is applied.

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. Confirm Blocksy Companion Pro is installed
    Check your WordPress plugins directory for 'blocksy-companion' or 'blocksy-companion-pro' folder, or query the WordPress plugins database table
    Affected if The plugin is present in the system
  2. Identify installed version
    Read the main plugin file (e.g., plugin.php or blocksy-companion.php) and locate the 'Version' header, or query via WP-CLI: wp plugin list --filter='blocksy' --format=json
    Affected if Version is lower than 2.1.47 (e.g., 2.1.46 or earlier)
  3. Verify Advanced Reviews feature status
    Check WordPress theme options or blocksy settings panel for 'Advanced Reviews' feature enablement; this may be stored in theme customizer options or a database option with 'blocksy' prefix
    Affected if Advanced Reviews feature is enabled and the plugin version is below 2.1.47
  4. Check Custom Fonts extension status
    Inspect the Custom Fonts extension configuration in Blocksy settings or check for custom-fonts related database options; the vulnerable strpos() check applies to font file uploads in this extension
    Affected if Custom Fonts extension is enabled and the plugin version is below 2.1.47
  5. Audit uploaded files for suspicious extensions
    Search wp-content/uploads directories for files with double extensions (e.g., *.woff2.php, *.ttf.php, *.otf.php) or PHP files in font/upload directories using: find /path/to/wp-content/uploads -name '*.php' -o -name '*.woff2.php'
    Affected if Any PHP files or double-extension files exist in upload directories, especially in font-related paths

You are affected if Blocksy Companion Pro version is below 2.47 and either the Advanced Reviews feature or Custom Fonts extension is enabled, or if suspicious double-extension PHP files are found in uploads.
