Descriptions
The "Sql Run Query" panel in WP-DBManager (aka Database Manager) plugin before 2.7.2 for WordPress allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files by leveraging failure to sufficiently limit queries, as demonstrated by use of LOAD_FILE in an INSERT statement.
El panel "Sql Run Query" en WP-DBManager (también conocido como Database Manager) en versiones anteriores a la 2.7.2 para WordPress permite que los atacantes remotos lean archivos arbitrarios aprovechándose de que no limita las consultas suficientemente, tal y como se demuestra con el uso de LOAD_FILE en una declaración INSERT.
