CVE-2025-1972: CWE-73 External Control of File Name or Path in webtoffee Export and Import Users and Customers
The Export and Import Users and Customers plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file deletion due to insufficient file path validation in the admin_log_page() function in all versions up to, and including, 2.6.2. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Administrator-level access and above, to delete arbitrary log files on the server.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
The Export and Import Users and Customers plugin for WordPress suffers from CWE-73: External Control of File Name or Path. Specifically, the admin_log_page() function fails to properly validate file paths, allowing authenticated administrators to delete arbitrary log files on the server. This vulnerability affects all versions up to and including 2.6.2. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 2.7, reflecting low severity with network attack vector, low complexity, high privileges required, no user interaction, unchanged scope, no confidentiality or availability impact, and limited integrity impact.
Potential Impact
An attacker with Administrator-level access can delete arbitrary log files on the server, potentially disrupting logging and forensic capabilities. There is no direct impact on confidentiality or availability. The integrity impact is limited to unauthorized deletion of files. No evidence of exploitation in the wild has been reported.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is released, restrict Administrator access to trusted users only and monitor plugin updates from webtoffee. No specific temporary mitigations are documented.
