This is due to insufficient path normalization and validation of the user-supplied `shortcode_name` parameter in the `extensive_vc_init_shortcode_pagination` AJAX action. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to include and execute arbitrary PHP files on the server, allowing the execution of any PHP code in those files via the `shortcode_name` parameter.","published":"2025-12-13T16:16:50.000Z","lastModified":"2026-10-07T20:10:02.000Z","status":"Deferred","sourceIdentifier":"security@wordfence.com","cvss":{"version":"3.1","score":8.1,"severity":"HIGH","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H"},"cwe":["CWE-98"],"affected":[],"epss":{"score":0.00627,"percentile":0.4983,"date":"2026-10-27","history":[]},"kev":{"listed":false},"exploits":{"count":0,"verified":false,"firstPublished":null,"source":"Exploit-DB (https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb)","entries":[]},"verdict":{"level":"high","text":"High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.63%).
