Last modified
CVE-2025-10488 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 8.1/10 on the CVSS scale. The Directorist: AI-Powered Business Directory Plugin with Classified Ads Listings plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file move due to insufficient file path validation in the add_listing_action AJAX action in all versions up to, and including, 8.4.8.

EPSS estimates a 0.83% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
