CVE-2025-13891Public exploitNetwork attack vectorHinoki check available

Directory enumeration via unrestricted AJAX path

Published Dec 12, 2025 · Updated Dec 12, 2025

Path traversal in WPChill Modula Image Gallery 2.13.3 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to enumerate server directories. The modula_list_folders AJAX handler passes a user-supplied absolute path to directory operations without enforcing an allowed base directory. Author-level accounts with upload_files and edit_posts can reveal directory names and deployment layout, but the endpoint does not read file contents.
