CVE-2026-25397 is a path traversal vulnerability involving the '.../...//' sequence in the Snowray Software File Uploader for WooCommerce plugin (file-uploader-for-woocommerce). This issue affects all versions from n/a through 1.0.4 and is classified under CWE-35. The vulnerability was published on 2026-03-25 with a CVSS v3.1 base score of 7.5 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N).

Remote attackers can exploit this vulnerability without authentication, privileges, or user interaction due to its network accessibility and low attack complexity. Successful exploitation enables high confidentiality impact, allowing attackers to traverse directories and access sensitive files on the server, while integrity and availability remain unaffected.

The Patchstack advisory at https://patchstack.com/database/Wordpress/Plugin/file-uploader-for-woocommerce/vulnerability/wordpress-file-uploader-for-woocommerce-plugin-1-0-4-path-traversal-vulnerability?_s_id=cve provides further details on the vulnerability for mitigation guidance.

Affected Assets

Mitigating Controls

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

SI-10 Information Input Validation good match

Input validation directly neutralizes path sequences so the traversal cannot be introduced or exploited.

AC-3 Access Enforcement partial match

Enforces access authorizations on the resulting pathname, blocking traversal attempts from succeeding.

AC-4 Information Flow Enforcement partial match

Enforces information flow rules that stop unauthorized directory escapes via crafted paths.

AC-6 Least Privilege partial match

Least privilege reduces the impact of any successful traversal by limiting accessible resources.

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.

PR.PS-06 mostly match
prevents

Secure SDLC practices directly require input validation and path sanitization that neutralize traversal sequences.

A.8.29 Security testing in development and acceptance mostly match
finds

Security testing in development can detect path-traversal flaws before release.

A.8.25 Secure development life cycle partial match
prevents

Secure SDLC mandates input validation and path-handling controls that directly mitigate path traversal.

A.8.26 Application security requirements partial match
prevents

Application security requirements include rules for safe file-path construction and canonicalization.

A.8.27 Secure system architecture and engineering principles partial match
prevents

Secure architecture principles require proper directory restrictions and input sanitization to prevent traversal.

A.8.28 Secure coding partial match
prevents

Secure coding standards explicitly forbid unsafe path concatenation and mandate canonicalization routines.

A.8.3 Information access restriction partial match
mitigates

Information access restriction limits file reachability but does not address the input-validation flaw itself.
