Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.
CVE-2025-26325 affects ShopXO version 6.4.0 and involves an unrestricted file upload vulnerability in the ThemeDataService.php component. Classified under CWE-434 (Unrestricted Upload of File with Dangerous Type), it carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 9.8 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H), highlighting its critical severity due to network-based access, low complexity, lack of authentication or user interaction requirements, and high potential impacts across confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The vulnerability was published on 2025-02-27.
Unauthenticated remote attackers can exploit this flaw over the network without privileges or user interaction. By uploading malicious files through the vulnerable ThemeDataService.php endpoint, attackers can achieve high-impact outcomes, including potential remote code execution, data compromise, or system disruption, as indicated by the CVSS metrics.
The issue is documented in GitHub issue #86 on the gongfuxiang/shopxo repository (https://github.com/gongfuxiang/shopxo/issues/86), where security practitioners should review for any disclosed patches, workarounds, or mitigation guidance.

V5.1.1
Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
Malicious-code protection at entry points blocks dangerous file types from being accepted and executed.
Least functionality restricts the file types and automatic processing capabilities the system will accept.
Mobile-code controls define, authorize, and block unacceptable uploaded code before automatic processing occurs.

Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→CSF cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
Restricting execution of unauthorized software directly blocks dangerous uploaded files from running.
Hardened configuration baselines can enforce allowed file types and processing rules.
Secure development practices include input validation and file-type restrictions that prevent this weakness.
Mitigating Controls (ISO/IEC 27001:2022 Annex A) AI
Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→ISO cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
Configuration and acceptance testing verify that file-upload handling enforces allowed types and does not permit dangerous content to be stored or executed.
Secure-coding guidelines and security testing explicitly address restrictions on allowed file types and upload handling, reducing the risk that dangerous file uploads are accepted without validation.
Mandated testing for malicious content and known vulnerabilities reduces the likelihood that an outsourced component will contain or accept dangerous file types that could later be uploaded or executed.
Application allow-listing and pre-use scanning of received files directly blocks the introduction of executable content that has not been vetted, eliminating the primary vector for unrestricted dangerous file uploads.
