CVE-2025-3616Greenshift 11.4 - 11.4.5 - Authenticated (Subscriber+) Arbitrary File Upload
High 8.8
In plain English
A high-severity unrestricted file upload in Greenshift – animation and page builder blocks from wpsoul. There are no confirmed reports of exploitation so far. The chance it is exploited in the next 30 days is estimated at 2.6% (higher than 85% of all known vulnerabilities). Ready-made attack tooling exists: public proof-of-concept code.
Official description
The Greenshift – animation and page builder blocks plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file uploads due to missing file type validation in the gspb_make_proxy_api_request() function in versions 11.4 to 11.4.5. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to upload arbitrary files on the affected site's server which may make remote code execution possible. The arbitrary file upload was sufficiently patched in 11.4.5, but a capability check was added in 11.4.6 to properly prevent unauthorized limited file uploads.
