Official Description

The HUSKY – Products Filter Professional for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Local File Inclusion in all versions up to, and including, 1.3.6.5 via the 'template' parameter of the woof_text_search AJAX action. 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 images and other “safe” file types can be uploaded and included.

Attack Vector Analysis — CITED Relevance

The vulnerability exists in the 'template' parameter of the woof_text_search AJAX action, which is not properly validated. An unauthenticated attacker can manipulate this parameter to include and execute arbitrary files on the server. This can lead to the execution of PHP code, allowing the attacker to perform actions such as data exfiltration, code execution, and bypassing access controls. The attack can be performed remotely over the network without any user interaction.
