Summary

CVE-2025-6744 is a high-severity Code Injection (CWE-94) vulnerability in Xtemos Woodmart. Its CVSS base score is 7.3 (High).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploitation for Privilege Escalation (T1068); ranked at the 41th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.

The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to SA-11 (Developer Testing and Evaluation) and SI-10 (Information Input Validation) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Deeper analysis AI-assisted summary

Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.

The Woodmart theme for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary shortcode execution in all versions up to and including 8.2.3. The issue stems from insufficient validation of input to the woodmart_get_products_shortcode() function before it invokes do_shortcode, enabling unauthenticated execution of arbitrary shortcodes. The flaw is tracked as CWE-94 and carries a CVSS 3.1 score of 7.3.

Unauthenticated attackers with network access can exploit the vulnerability without user interaction or credentials to run arbitrary shortcodes. Successful exploitation can result in limited impacts to confidentiality, integrity, and availability on the affected WordPress site.

The EPSS score remains flat at a low value of 0.0132 with no material increase after disclosure.

Vulnerability Data

The The Woodmart theme for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary shortcode execution in all versions up to, and including, 8.2.3. This is due to the software allowing users to execute an action that does not properly validate a value before…

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

SA-11 Developer Testing and Evaluation good match

Developer testing and evaluation finds code paths that accept and execute externally influenced strings.

SI-10 Information Input Validation good match

Input validation directly stops untrusted data from being used to construct executable code without neutralization.

AC-6 Least Privilege partial match

Least privilege limits the damage an injected code fragment can perform once executed.

SA-15 Development Process, Standards, and Tools partial match

Requiring documented secure development standards and tools enforces use of safe code-generation APIs and escaping.

PR.PS-06's SDLC practices directly target injection flaws via secure coding and testing (mostly), yet as a single broad outcome it leaves many code-generation specifics unaddressed (partial).

A.8.28 Secure coding partial match
prevents

Banning unapproved code samples and unauthenticated web services, combined with secure-coding standards and SAST, prevents the dynamic generation or inclusion of attacker-supplied code.
