Descriptions

- The Photo Gallery by 10Web WordPress plugin before 1.8.15 did not ensure that uploaded files are kept inside its uploads folder, allowing high privilege users to put images anywhere in the filesystem via a path traversal vector.

The Photo Gallery plugin by 10Web for WordPress is vulnerable to Directory Traversal in versions up to, and including, 1.8.14 via the dir parameter. This allows authenticated attackers with administrator-level permissions to upload files to arbitrary directories on the server.
