CVE-2025-7443 is an unauthenticated arbitrary file upload vulnerability in the BerqWP WordPress plugin affecting all versions up to and including 2.2.42. The flaw is present in the store_javascript_cache.php component, which is intended to cache JavaScript content for the plugin’s optimization workflow but fails to enforce file type validation. Because the upload handling does not adequately verify extensions or MIME types, an attacker can submit crafted POST requests containing arbitrary files, including server-executable scripts, and have them written to a web-accessible location on the target server. This can enable subsequent remote execution of attacker-supplied code in the context of the web server.
