Description

The Category Ajax Filter plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Local File Inclusion in all versions up to, and including, 2.8.2 via the 'params[caf-post-layout]' parameter. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to include and execute arbitrary files on the server, allowing the execution of any PHP code in those files. This can be used to bypass access controls, obtain sensitive data, or achieve code execution in cases where files with a .php extension can be uploaded and included.

Affected WordPress components

  • Category AJAX Filter – Posts, Custom Post Types & Product Filter Plugin · category-ajax-filter
    Confirmed match Active
    Up to and including 2.8.2
