CVE-2024-8538

The Big File Uploads – Increase Maximum File Upload Size plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Full Path Disclosure in all versions up to, and including, 2.1.2. This is due the plugin not sanitizing a file path in an error message. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with author-level access and above, to retrieve the full path of the web application, which can be used to aid other attacks. The information displayed is not useful on its own, and requires another vulnerability to be present for damage to an affected website.

Summary
  • (es) El complemento Big File Uploads – Increase Maximum File Upload Size para WordPress es vulnerable a la divulgación de ruta completa en todas las versiones hasta la 2.1.2 incluida. Esto se debe a que el complemento no desinfecta la ruta de un archivo en un mensaje de error. Esto permite que los atacantes autenticados, con acceso de nivel de autor y superior, recuperen la ruta completa de la aplicación web, que se puede utilizar para ayudar a otros ataques. La información que se muestra no es útil por sí sola y requiere que exista otra vulnerabilidad para que se produzcan daños en un sitio web afectado.
