CVE-2025-12388
Full vulnerability record from the local CVENow database.
Description
The B Carousel Block – Responsive Image and Content Carousel plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Server-Side Request Forgery in versions up to, and including, 1.1.5. This is due to the plugin not validating user-supplied URLs before passing them to the wp_remote_request() function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to make web requests to arbitrary locations originating from the web application and can be used to query and modify information from internal services.

"value": "El plugin B Carousel Block - Responsive Image and Content Carousel para WordPress es vulnerable a Server-Side Request Forgery en versiones hasta la 1.1.5, ambas inclusive. Esto se debe a que el plugin no valida las URL proporcionadas por el usuario antes de pasarlas a la función wp_remote_request(). Esto hace posible que atacantes autenticados, con acceso de nivel de suscriptor y superior, realicen peticiones web a ubicaciones arbitrarias originadas desde la aplicación web y puede utilizarse para consultar y modificar información de servicios internos."
