CVE-2025-6213 Information

Description

The Nginx Cache Purge Preload plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Remote Code Execution in all versions up to and including 2.1.1 via the ’nppp_preload_cache_on_update’ function. This is due to insufficient sanitization of the $_SERVER[‘HTTP_REFERERER’] parameter passed from the ’nppp_handle_fastcgi_cache_actions_admin_bar’ function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with Administrator-level access and above to execute code on the server.
