CVE-2025-7650: CWE-98 Improper Control of Filename for Include/Require Statement in PHP Program ('PHP Remote File Inclusion') in setriosoft BizCalendar Web
The BizCalendar Web plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Local File Inclusion in all versions up to, and including, 1.1.0.53 via the 'bizcalv' shortcode. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-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.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2025-7650 is a Local File Inclusion vulnerability (CWE-98) in the BizCalendar Web WordPress plugin. The flaw exists in the handling of the 'bizcalv' shortcode, allowing authenticated attackers with Contributor or higher privileges to include arbitrary files on the server. This can lead to execution of arbitrary PHP code, enabling privilege escalation, data disclosure, or remote code execution. The vulnerability affects all versions up to and including 1.1.0.53. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 7.5, reflecting high severity with network attack vector, high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability, and requiring low privileges but high attack complexity.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation allows authenticated users with Contributor-level access to execute arbitrary PHP code on the server. This can result in bypassing access controls, unauthorized data access, and full code execution, compromising the integrity, confidentiality, and availability of the affected system.
Mitigation Recommendations
No official patch or remediation guidance is currently available. Users should restrict Contributor-level access until a fix is released. Monitor the vendor's advisory channels for updates and apply patches promptly once available. Avoid uploading or including files that could be executed as PHP code as a temporary mitigation.
