CVE-2026-14244Network attack vector

Unauthenticated file read via url path traversal

Published Jul 8, 2026 · Updated Jul 8, 2026

Directory traversal in Jssor Slider by jssor.com 3.1.24 and earlier allows remote attackers to read arbitrary server files via the url parameter. The plugin's request-dispatch path passes the attacker-controlled url value to file-handling logic without rejecting parent-directory traversal sequences, allowing the resolved path to escape its intended directory. No authentication or user interaction is required; access is limited to files readable by the WordPress server process, with no reported write or service-interruption capability.
