Critical Cybersecurity Flaws Exposed: Protect Your Website!

Daily Cybersecurity Briefing: A Multitude of Critical Vulnerabilities Uncovered

Welcome to today’s cybersecurity update, where we sift through a veritable smorgasbord of new vulnerabilities, particularly in popular WordPress plugins and beyond. The ever-evolving threat landscape is in full display with multiple critical issues being discovered, from arbitrary file uploads and deletions to SQL injections and remote file inclusions. Let’s unpack some of the key details and what they mean for businesses and website administrators.

Critical Vulnerabilities in WordPress Plugins: eMagicOne, StoreKeeper, miniOrange and More

The eMagicOne Store Manager for WooCommerce has come under scrutiny with not one, but several vulnerabilities. For example, CVE-2025-5058 and CVE-2025-4336 enable unauthenticated attackers to upload arbitrary files simply because of missing file type validation in core functions – a weakness that could pave the way for remote code execution. Additionally, CVE-2025-4603 highlights a file deletion flaw, making it alarmingly easy for attackers to remove critical server files like wp-config.php if default credentials or weak passwords are present.

Other plugins aren’t off the hook either. The StoreKeeper for WooCommerce (CVE-2025-47687) and miniOrange vulnerabilities (CVE-2025-47672 for Discord Integration and CVE-2025-47670 for Social Login) have demonstrated similar unrestricted file uploads and remote file inclusion issues that leave sites dangerously open to compromise. With severities peaking at a critical 10.0 in some instances, website administrators must be vigilant.

Other Platform Vulnerabilities and Emerging Threats

Beyond WordPress, the threat matrix widens with issues impacting a variety of systems:

• File Inclusion and Deserialization Flaws: Vulnerabilities in GoodLayers Tourmaster (CVE-2025-48292), AncoraThemes Kids Planet (CVE-2025-48289) and Pagaleve Pix (CVE-2025-48287) reveal dangerous oversights in file handling and object injection—each offering attackers opportunities to execute malicious code.
• SQL Injections and Path Traversals: Majestic Support (CVE-2025-48283), Printcart (CVE-2025-47640 & CVE-2025-47641), Facturante (CVE-2025-47599), and Tainacan (CVE-2025-47512) are among the affected, with vulnerabilities that could lead to unauthorised access to sensitive data or even allow complete system takeover.
• Object Injection and Privilege Escalation: From Codexpert’s WC Affiliate (CVE-2025-47660) to Themewinter Eventin (CVE-2025-47539), and multiple issues within mojoomla systems (CVE-2025-47663 and CVE-2025-47631), attackers are continuously refining their methods to escalate privileges or inject harmful objects into systems.

Noteworthy Cyber Attacks Beyond Plugin Weaknesses

In other startling developments, cybercriminals are targeting macOS users with bogus Ledger Live apps—an attack vector aimed at crypto enthusiasts who trust their cold wallets as a secure harbour for digital funds. In parallel, a major M&S cyber attack and the unveiling of a ‘malicious’ Russian cyber campaign have further underscored the diverse nature of today’s cyber threats. With over 650 spear-phishing attacks reported on Indian infrastructure alone, the need for robust security measures has never been more clear.

These incidents serve as a timely reminder that organisations must stay abreast of vulnerabilities and ensure that systems are promptly patched. At Synergos Consultancy, based in Huddersfield, we routinely help businesses achieve compliance and strengthen their cybersecurity defences through robust ISO certifications, GDPR compliance, and other essential accreditations. A little precaution goes a long way – after all, prevention is better (and cheaper) than cure!

As the digital battleground continues to expand, keeping systems secure demands constant vigilance and swift remedial actions. Stay secure, keep informed, and remember that sometimes a tiny vulnerability can be the weak link in an otherwise strong chain.
