Server-Side Request Forgery in FIFU WordPress Plugin

Publication date: 2026-01-10

Last updated on: 2026-01-10

Assigner: Wordfence

Description
The Featured Image from URL (FIFU) plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Server-Side Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 5.3.1. This is due to insufficient validation of user-supplied URLs before passing them to the getimagesize() function in the Elementor widget integration. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to make web requests to arbitrary locations originating from the web application and can be used to query and modify information from internal services via the fifu_input_url parameter in the FIFU Elementor widget granted they have permissions to use Elementor.

AI Powered Q&A
Can you explain this vulnerability to me?

This vulnerability is a Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) in the Featured Image from URL (FIFU) plugin for WordPress, affecting all versions up to 5.3.1. It occurs because the plugin does not properly validate user-supplied URLs before using them in the getimagesize() function within the Elementor widget integration. This allows authenticated users with Contributor-level access or higher to make web requests from the web application to arbitrary locations.


How can this vulnerability impact me? :

An attacker with Contributor-level access or higher can exploit this vulnerability to make the web application send requests to arbitrary internal or external locations. This can be used to query or modify information from internal services that are otherwise inaccessible, potentially leading to unauthorized data access or manipulation.
