CVE-2025-14166: CWE-94 Improper Control of Generation of Code ('Code Injection') in ludwigyou WPMasterToolKit (WPMTK) – All in one plugin
The WPMasterToolKit plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to PHP Code Injection in all versions up to, and including, 2.13.0. This is due to the plugin allowing Author-level users to create and execute arbitrary PHP code through the Code Snippets feature without proper capability checks. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to execute arbitrary PHP code on the server, leading to remote code execution, privilege escalation, and complete site compromise.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2025-14166 is a PHP code injection vulnerability in the WPMasterToolKit WordPress plugin (versions up to 2.13.0). The plugin's Code Snippets feature improperly allows users with Contributor-level access or higher to execute arbitrary PHP code without adequate capability checks. This flaw enables authenticated attackers to perform remote code execution and escalate privileges, potentially compromising the entire WordPress site. The vulnerability is classified under CWE-94 (Improper Control of Generation of Code). No patch or official fix has been published as of the data provided.
Potential Impact
An authenticated attacker with Contributor-level or higher privileges can execute arbitrary PHP code on the server hosting the WordPress site. This can lead to remote code execution, privilege escalation, and complete compromise of the affected website, including unauthorized control over site content and server resources. The CVSS score of 5.3 reflects a medium severity impact, indicating significant risk but requiring authentication to exploit.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is released, restrict user roles to prevent untrusted users from having Contributor-level or higher access. Review and limit access to the Code Snippets feature to trusted administrators only. Monitor plugin updates from the vendor for a forthcoming patch.
