Descriptions

The Backuply – Backup, Restore, Migrate and Clone plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Directory Traversal in all versions up to, and including, 1.2.7 via the backup_name parameter in the backuply_download_backup function. This makes it possible for attackers to have an account with only activate_plugins capability to access arbitrary files on the server, which can contain sensitive information. This only impacts sites hosted on Windows servers.

El complemento Backuply – Backup, Restore, Migrate and Clone para WordPress es vulnerable a Directory Traversal en todas las versiones hasta la 1.2.7 incluida a través del parámetro backup_name en la función backuply_download_backup. Esto hace posible que los atacantes tengan una cuenta con solo la capacidad enable_plugins para acceder a archivos arbitrarios en el servidor, que pueden contener información confidencial. Esto sólo afecta a los sitios alojados en servidores Windows.
