Overview

The WooCommerce Support Ticket System plugin for WordPress contains a critical vulnerability (CVE-2024-10625) discovered on November 8, 2024. The vulnerability affects all versions up to and including 17.7. This security flaw exists in the deletetmpuploaded_file() function, which lacks proper file path validation (NVD).

Technical details

The vulnerability is classified as a Path Traversal issue (CWE-22) that allows for improper limitation of a pathname to a restricted directory. The severity is rated as Critical with a CVSS v3.1 Base Score of 9.8 (CRITICAL) and vector string CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H, indicating the highest level of severity (NVD).

Impact
