The Ultimate Addons for WPBakery plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Local File Inclusion in all versions up to, and including, 3.19.14. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor 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.
Not sure which version you run? Run a passive check — it reads public files only.
Remediation & mitigations
- Update to version 3.19.15, or a newer patched version
- Rotate administrator passwords and application secrets if the site ran a vulnerable version while publicly reachable.
