Bold values are the worst case: easiest to exploit or largest impact.

Attack Vector: Network: The vulnerable component is bound to the network stack and the set of possible attackers extends beyond the other options listed, up to and including the entire Internet. Such a vulnerability is often termed 'remotely exploitable' and can be thought of as an attack being exploitable at the protocol level one or more network hops away (e.g., across one or more routers).
Attack Complexity: Low: Specialized access conditions or extenuating circumstances do not exist. An attacker can expect repeatable success against the vulnerable component.
Privileges Required: None: The attacker is unauthorized prior to attack, and therefore does not require any access to settings or files to carry out an attack.
User Interaction: None: The vulnerable system can be exploited without any interaction from any user.
Scope: Unchanged: An exploited vulnerability can only affect resources managed by the same security authority. In this case, the vulnerable component and the impacted component are either the same, or both are managed by the same security authority.
Confidentiality: None: There is no loss of confidentiality within the impacted component.
Integrity: High: There is a total loss of integrity, or a complete loss of protection. For example, the attacker is able to modify any/all files protected by the impacted component. Alternatively, only some files can be modified, but malicious modification would present a direct, serious consequence to the impacted component.
Availability: None: There is no impact to availability within the impacted component.

A missing step is not evidence of safety. Sources: cve.org (opens in a new tab), the Metasploit, Exploit-DB and nuclei-templates index as of 26 Oct 2026.

Disclosed: The CVE record is public on cve.org. Its publication is t = 0.
Detectable: A public nuclei template can find exposed instances, for defenders and attackers alike.
Weaponised: Public exploit code exists in Metasploit or Exploit-DB, or CISA SSVC or the CVSS exploit maturity reports a public proof of concept.
Exploited in the wild: CISA KEV lists it, CISA SSVC rates exploitation active, or a source reports attacks.
Observed by OffSeq Mirage: OffSeq Mirage honeypot sensors recorded attack traffic for this CVE, or found exposed hosts without attack traffic.

Moments are spaced evenly, not to scale; a dashed line marks a gap of six months or more. Deltas count from t = 0. Sources that give only a date (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, or a time of exactly 00:00Z) read “same day” rather than hours. Metasploit modules carry the flaw’s disclosure date, not their release date, and nuclei templates carry no date, so both appear above but not on the timeline.

AI-suggested

To mitigate CVE-2025-65844, organizations should immediately restrict access to the /api/images endpoint, ideally limiting it to authenticated and authorized users only. Implement strict server-side validation to ensure only legitimate image files with safe extensions and MIME types are accepted, rejecting all other file types. Employ content scanning to detect and block malicious payloads within uploaded files. Monitor server storage usage and set quotas or alerts to detect abnormal disk space consumption indicative of abuse. Regularly audit and review uploaded content directories for unauthorized files. If possible, update EverShop to a patched version once available or apply vendor-provided workarounds. Additionally, deploy web application firewalls (WAFs) with rules to block suspicious upload patterns and consider isolating upload directories from execution privileges to prevent execution of uploaded scripts. Educate administrators about this vulnerability and ensure incident response plans include steps to handle potential exploitation.

Description

EverShop 2.0.1 allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to upload arbitrary files and create directories via the /api/images endpoint. The endpoint is accessible without authentication by default, and server-side validation of uploaded files is insufficient. This can be abused to upload arbitrary content (including non-image files) which could impersonate user/admin login panels (exfiltrating credentials) and to perform a denial-of-service attack by exhausting disk space.

Impact

For European organizations using EverShop 2.0.1, this vulnerability poses a significant risk. Attackers can compromise the integrity of web applications by uploading malicious files that impersonate login pages, potentially leading to credential theft and unauthorized access. This can result in data breaches, loss of customer trust, and regulatory penalties under GDPR if personal data is compromised. The ability to perform denial-of-service attacks by exhausting disk space can disrupt business operations, causing downtime and financial losses. E-commerce platforms are particularly sensitive to such disruptions and reputational damage. Since the vulnerability requires no authentication and no user interaction, it can be exploited at scale by automated attacks, increasing the threat level. Organizations with public-facing EverShop instances are at higher risk, especially if they have not implemented additional access controls or file validation measures.

Base weaknessLikelihood of exploit: MediumCWE Top 25 (2025): #12OWASP Top 10 A06:2025: Insecure Design (opens in a new tab)
The product allows the upload or transfer of dangerous file types that are automatically processed within its environment.
Architecture and Design
Generate a new, unique filename for an uploaded file instead of using the user-supplied filename, so that no external input is used at all.
Architecture and Design · Enforcement by Conversion
When the set of acceptable objects, such as filenames or URLs, is limited or known, create a mapping from a set of fixed input values (such as numeric IDs) to the actual filenames or URLs, and reject all other inputs.
Architecture and Design
Consider storing the uploaded files outside of the web document root entirely. Then, use other mechanisms to deliver the files dynamically.
