At a glance
CVE-2025-32209 is a high-severity Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal') vulnerability in the Total processing card payments for WooCommerce WordPress plugin, affecting versions <= 7.1.5. It carries a CVSS score of 8.1 (reachable over the network; low attack complexity; high integrity, availability impact). Exploitation requires an authenticated account at Subscriber level or above. The issue is fixed in version 7.1.6; sites on affected versions should update now. Disclosed April 2025, reported by LVT-tholv2k.
Vulnerability Overview
The Total processing card payments for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Path Traversal in all versions up to, and including, 7.1.5 via the ajax_download_debugdata_file() function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to download the contents of arbitrary files on the server, which can contain sensitive information.
Technical Analysis
The vector marks this flaw as remotely reachable over the network, with low attack complexity — no special timing or configuration is needed, and no interaction from a victim user. A successful exploit has high impact on integrity, availability.
CWE-22: Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal')
Total processing card payments for WooCommerce <= 7.1.5 carries this weakness at ajax_download_debugdata_file(), and reaching it takes an account at Subscriber level or above. Path traversal happens when user-controlled text is used to build a filesystem path without being constrained to an intended directory, so sequences like ../ walk the resolved path somewhere else.
Depending on the operation, it means reading files outside the intended folder — wp-config.php being the usual target — or writing to and deleting paths the web server can touch. For Total processing card payments for WooCommerce the fix is 7.1.6: builds <= 7.1.5 are affected, anything from 7.1.6 onward is not.
Remediation
Update to version 7.1.6, or a newer patched version
How does WordSec protect against this?
An attacker needs Subscriber access first, so the firewall sees the attempt as traffic from a logged-in account: WordSec's web application firewall inspects request payloads before WordPress loads them. None of that substitutes for the fix: Total processing card payments for WooCommerce 7.1.6 closes this, and updating the plugin is the step that ends it.
