CVE-2024-4670: CWE-98 Improper Control of Filename for Include/Require Statement in PHP Program ('PHP Remote File Inclusion') in plugins360 All-in-One Video Gallery
The All-in-One Video Gallery plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Local File Inclusion in all versions up to, and including, 3.6.5 via the aiovg_search_form shortcode. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to include and execute arbitrary 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 images and other “safe” file types can be uploaded and included.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2024-4670 is a Local File Inclusion vulnerability (CWE-98) in the All-in-One Video Gallery plugin for WordPress, affecting all versions up to 3.6.5. The vulnerability arises from improper control of filenames used in include/require statements within the aiovg_search_form shortcode. Authenticated attackers with contributor-level privileges or above can exploit this to include arbitrary files, enabling execution of PHP code on the server. This can result in unauthorized access, data leakage, or remote code execution. The vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.8, indicating high severity. A patch is available from the vendor.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation allows authenticated users with contributor or higher privileges to execute arbitrary PHP code on the server by including files via the vulnerable shortcode. This can lead to bypassing WordPress access controls, exposure of sensitive data, and full remote code execution on the affected server. The high CVSS score reflects the critical impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
Mitigation Recommendations
A patch is available to remediate this vulnerability. Users of the All-in-One Video Gallery plugin should update to the fixed version immediately. Since the vulnerability requires authenticated access at contributor level or higher, restricting user privileges and monitoring for suspicious activity can reduce risk until patching is applied.
