Fancy Product Designer | WooCommerce WordPress <= 6.4.8 - Unauthenticated Server-Side Request Forgery via Race Condition
Strategic Overview
<= 6.4.8CVE-2025-13231Vulnerability Overview
The Fancy Product Designer plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Server-Side Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 6.4.8. This is due to a time-of-check/time-of-use (TOCTOU) race condition in the 'url' parameter of the fpd_custom_uplod_file AJAX action. The plugin validates the URL by calling getimagesize() first, then later retrieves the same URL using file_get_contents(). This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to exploit the timing gap to perform SSRF attacks by serving a valid image during validation, then changing the response to redirect to arbitrary internal or external URLs during the actual fetch.
Technical Analysis
REMEDIATION: Update to version 6.5.0, or a newer patched version --- IDENTIFIER: CWE-362 (Concurrent Execution using Shared Resource with Improper Synchronization ('Race Condition')) The product contains a concurrent code sequence that requires temporary, exclusive access to a shared resource, but a timing window exists in which the shared resource can be modified by another code sequence operating concurrently.
