Summary
The Zephyr Project Manager plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Directory Traversal in all versions up to, and including, 3.3.203 via the `file` parameter. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Custom-level access and above, to read the contents of arbitrary files on the server, which can contain sensitive information. On servers that have `allow_url_fopen` enabled, this issue allows for Server-Side Request Forgery.
Risk Assessment
An authenticated attacker can read arbitrary files on the server, potentially leading to leakage of configuration data, passwords, or other sensitive information. On servers with allow_url_fopen enabled, SSRF can also be used to interact with internal resources.
Recommendation
Upgrade the Zephyr Project Manager plugin to a version later than 3.3.203 that fixes this vulnerability. If upgrade is not possible, restrict access to the plugin or disable allow_url_fopen.
Other vulnerabilities in Zephyr Project Manager
See all- CVE-2026-76931Medium
The Zephyr Project Manager plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'message' parameter in all versions up to and including 3.3.205 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This allows authenticated attackers with Custom-level access and above to inject arbitrary web scripts that execute when a user accesses an injected page. The vulnerability is only exploitable when the 'Directly link to project' setting is disabled.
- CVE-2025-10490Medium
