What is CVE-2025-8047?

The disable-right-click-powered-by-pixterme (v1.2) and pixter-image-digital-license (v1.0) WordPress plugins contain a significant vulnerability. These plugins inadvertently load a compromised JavaScript file sourced from an abandoned S3 bucket. This malicious file can serve as a backdoor, allowing unauthorized access to the affected systems. Currently, it displays an alert promoting security services, and users can be added to a list of allowed domains, thereby silencing the alert upon payment, raising serious concerns about user data safety and plugin integrity.

Affected Version(s)

disable-right-click-powered-by-pixterme 0 <= 1.2

pixter-image-digital-license 0 <= 1.0

Exploit Proof of Concept (PoC)

PoC code is written by security researchers to demonstrate the vulnerability can be exploited. PoC code is also a key component for weaponization which could lead to ransomware.
