Vendor/Project: roselldk
Product: WebP Express

Description

The WebP Express plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to information exposure via config files in all versions up to, and including, 0.25.9. This is due to the plugin not properly randomizing the name of the config file to prevent direct access on NGINX. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to extract configuration data.

Technical Analysis

CVE-2025-11379 is an information exposure vulnerability (CWE-200) in the WebP Express plugin for WordPress by roselldk. The issue arises from the plugin's failure to randomize the config file names properly, allowing unauthenticated attackers to directly access these files on NGINX web servers. This exposure can reveal sensitive configuration data. The vulnerability affects all versions up to and including 0.25.9. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 5.3 (medium severity) with network attack vector, low attack complexity, no privileges required, no user interaction, and confidentiality impact only. There is no vendor advisory or patch information available at this time.

Potential Impact

An unauthenticated attacker can access sensitive configuration files of the WebP Express plugin on affected WordPress sites running NGINX, potentially disclosing configuration data. The impact is limited to confidentiality; integrity and availability are not affected. No known exploitation in the wild has been reported.

Mitigation Recommendations

Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until a fix is available, consider restricting direct access to plugin configuration files via web server configuration (e.g., NGINX rules) to prevent unauthorized access.
