Summary

CVE-2025-26325 is a critical-severity Unrestricted Upload of File with Dangerous Type (CWE-434) vulnerability in Shopxo Shopxo. Its CVSS base score is 9.8 (Critical).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190); ranked at the 40.7th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog; a public proof-of-concept is referenced.

The strongest mitigations our analysis identified are NIST 800-53 SI-10 (Information Input Validation) and SI-2 (Flaw Remediation).

Deeper analysis

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.

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.
T1105 Ingress Tool Transfer Command And Control
Adversaries may transfer tools or other files from an external system into a compromised environment.
T1505.003 Web Shell Persistence
Adversaries may backdoor web servers with web shells to establish persistent access to systems.
Why these techniques?

Unrestricted file upload in public-facing web app (ThemeDataService.php) directly enables remote unauthenticated exploitation (T1190) for malicious file ingress (T1105) and web shell deployment leading to RCE (T1505.003).
