The Doccure theme for WordPress contains a critical vulnerability (CVE-2025-9113) discovered on September 8, 2025. The vulnerability affects all versions up to and including 1.4.8, allowing unauthenticated attackers to perform arbitrary file uploads due to missing file type validation in the 'doccuretempuploadtomedia' function (NVD Database).

Technical details

The vulnerability is classified as CWE-434 (Unrestricted Upload of File with Dangerous Type) with a CVSS v3.1 base score of 9.8 (CRITICAL).

Mitigation and workarounds

Website administrators running the Doccure WordPress theme should immediately update to a version newer than 1.4.8 if available. In the absence of an update, it is recommended to disable file upload functionality or implement strict file type validation at the server level (Themeforest).
