Threat & Defense Details

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5)AI

SI-2 Flaw Remediation good match
prevent

Remediating flaws in vulnerable software components like the GetShop Ecommerce plugin directly prevents exploitation of this path traversal vulnerability.

SI-10 Information Input Validation good match
prevent

Validating file path inputs against traversal sequences like '.../...//' directly blocks unauthorized access to arbitrary files.

AC-3 Access Enforcement partial match
prevent

Enforcing approved access authorizations limits the impact of path traversal attempts by restricting logical access to system files.

MITRE ATT&CK Enterprise TechniquesAI

T1190 Exploit Public-Facing Application Initial Access
Adversaries may attempt to exploit a weakness in an Internet-facing host or system to initially access a network.
attack.mitre.org →
T1005 Data from Local System Collection
Adversaries may search local system sources, such as file systems, configuration files, local databases, virtual machine files, or process memory, to find files of interest and sensitive data prior to Exfiltration.
attack.mitre.org →
T1565.001 Stored Data Manipulation Impact
Adversaries may insert, delete, or manipulate data at rest in order to influence external outcomes or hide activity, thus threatening the integrity of the data.
attack.mitre.org →
T1485 Data Destruction Impact
Adversaries may destroy data and files on specific systems or in large numbers on a network to interrupt availability to systems, services, and network resources.
attack.mitre.org →
Why these techniques?

Path traversal vuln in public-facing WordPress plugin enables T1190 exploitation and directly facilitates arbitrary file read (T1005), stored data modification (T1565.001), and data destruction/disruption (T1485).

NVD Description

Path Traversal: '.../...//' vulnerability in boggibill GetShop ecommerce getshop-ecommerce allows Path Traversal.This issue affects GetShop ecommerce: from n/a through <= 1.3.

Deeper analysisAI

CVE-2024-54362 is a path traversal vulnerability (CWE-35) in the GetShop Ecommerce WordPress plugin by boggibill. The issue, exploitable via sequences like '.../...//', affects all versions of the plugin up to and including 1.3, with no specified lower bound.

Unauthenticated attackers can exploit this vulnerability remotely over the network, though it requires high attack complexity and no user interaction, according to its CVSS v3.1 base score of 8.1 (AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H). Successful exploitation grants high-impact access to confidentiality, integrity, and availability, enabling attackers to read, modify, or disrupt arbitrary files on the server.
