Descriptions

The Team WordPress plugin before 4.1.2 contains a file which could allow any authenticated users to download arbitrary files from the server via a path traversal vector. Furthermore, the file will also be deleted after its content is returned to the user

El plugin Team de WordPress versiones anteriores a 4.1.2, contiene un archivo que podría permitir a cualquier usuario autenticado descargar archivos arbitrarios del servidor por medio de un vector de salto de ruta. Además, el archivo también será eliminado después de que su contenido sea devuelto al usuario

The Team - WordPress Team Member Showcase Plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to directory traversal via the 'resources/download.php' file. This allows authenticated attackers to download a copy of any file on the server, and then delete the original from the server, granted the 'wp-content/plugins/tlp-team/temp' folder exists. This folder is not currently generated by default in the free version of the plugin, but in cases where it exists it is possible for an attacker to completely take over a site by deleting wp-config.php and reinstalling WordPress, while simultaneously obtaining credentials to the existing database.
