CVE-2025-32142Network attack vector

Authenticated code execution via unchecked template path

Published Apr 4, 2025 · Updated Apr 28, 2026

Local file inclusion in the StylemixThemes Motors plugin through 1.4.71 allows remote authenticated users to execute uploaded PHP files. The motors_ew_grid_tabs and motors_ew_ml_grid_tabs AJAX handlers pass a request-controlled template name to the template loader without an allowlist. Contributor-level access is required; inclusion can expose local files or execute PHP already uploaded to the server.
