Descriptions

The WPIDE WordPress plugin before 3.0 does not sanitize and validate the filename parameter before using it in a require statement in the admin dashboard, leading to a Local File Inclusion issue.

El plugin WPIDE de WordPress versiones anteriores a 3.0, no sanea y comprueba el parámetro filename antes de usarlo en una sentencia require en el panel de administración, conllevando a un problema de inclusión de archivos locales

The WPIDE plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Local File Inclusion in versions up to, and including, 2.6. This allows administrator-level or higher attackers to include and execute arbitrary files on the server, allowing the execution of any PHP code in those files. This can be used to bypass access controls, obtain sensitive data, or achieve code execution in cases where images and other “safe” file types can be uploaded and included.
