CVE-2025-3671: CWE-22 Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal') in dasinfomedia WPGYM - Wordpress Gym Management System
The WPGYM - Wordpress Gym Management System plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Local File Inclusion in all versions up to, and including, 67.7.0 via the 'page' parameter. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-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. The Local File Inclusion exploit can be chained to include various dashboard view files in the plugin. One in particular reported by the researcher can be leveraged to update the password of Super Administrator accounts in Multisite environments making privilege escalation possible.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2025-3671 is a Local File Inclusion vulnerability in the WPGYM Wordpress plugin affecting all versions up to 67.7.0. It arises from improper limitation of pathname inputs via the 'page' parameter, allowing authenticated users with low privileges to include arbitrary files. This can lead to execution of arbitrary PHP code, bypassing access controls, and sensitive data exposure. A notable exploitation path includes privilege escalation in multisite setups by modifying Super Administrator credentials.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation allows authenticated attackers with Subscriber-level access or higher to execute arbitrary PHP code on the server, bypass access controls, access sensitive data, and escalate privileges to Super Administrator in multisite WordPress environments. This can result in full site compromise, data breaches, and administrative takeover.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is available, restrict user roles and permissions to trusted users only and monitor for suspicious activity. Avoid uploading untrusted files and consider disabling or restricting the vulnerable plugin if possible.
