VillaTheme Salevo: Code injection in WordPress plugin
Summary
VillaTheme Salevo (WordPress plugin woo-boost-sales) up to and including version 1.3.0 contains a code injection flaw (CWE-94). According to the CNA's CVSS 3.1 vector, an unauthenticated remote attacker could exploit it over the network without user interaction, with high confidentiality impact. The description is vague and does not name the affected component, and the vector is questionable for a code injection flaw, so the actual impact is not fully confirmed.
Affected
- VillaTheme Salevo (woo-boost-sales) WordPress plugin, versions up to and including 1.3.0
Fixed in
- Version 1.3.1 (according to the CNA version data and Patchstack; not yet confirmed by the vendor or the WordPress.org changelog)
Workaround
- Unknown. No vendor workaround found. Deactivate or remove the plugin if an update is not possible.
Exploitation
- No known exploitation in the wild; not in the CISA KEV catalogue.
- No public proof of concept found.
- CISA SSVC: exploitation none, automatable yes, technical impact partial.
- Patchstack expects exploitation and notes mass-exploit campaigns for this vulnerability class.
Our recommendation
- Inventory all WordPress/WooCommerce sites for the Salevo plugin and check the installed version.
- Update to version 1.3.1 or later once the fix is confirmed.
- If an update is not possible, deactivate or remove the plugin.
- Review logs and the file system for unexpected PHP files or unauthorised admin changes.
- Plan with the CVSS 7.5 score until the vendor or Patchstack clarifies the severity (VulDB rates it 5.3).

PoC-in-GitHub, Metasploit and Exploit-DB list nothing for this CVE.
