缓解措施和替代方案翻译中…
The primary mitigation for CVE-2025-8895 is to immediately upgrade the WP Webhooks plugin to version 3.3.6 or later. If upgrading is not immediately possible due to compatibility issues or testing requirements, consider implementing temporary workarounds. While no direct WAF rules can prevent the underlying vulnerability, restricting file access permissions on the server can limit the damage if exploitation occurs. Specifically, ensure the web server user has minimal write access outside of the designated WordPress directories. After upgrading, verify the fix by attempting to access a non-public file via a crafted URL; access should be denied.
修复方法
将 WP Webhooks 插件更新到 3.3.6 或更高版本以缓解任意文件复制漏洞。 此更新修复了允许未经身份验证的攻击者复制服务器文件的用户输入验证不足的问题。 在更新之前,请务必备份您的站点。
