Product Input Fields for WooCommerce <= 1.9 - Authenticated (Contributor+) Arbitrary File Read
Strategic Overview
<= 1.9CVE-2024-10857Vulnerability Overview
The Product Input Fields for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Directory Traversal in all versions up to, and including, 1.9 via the handle_downloads() function due to insufficient file path validation/sanitization. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to read the contents of arbitrary files on the server, which can contain sensitive information.
Technical Analysis
REMEDIATION: Update to version 2.0, or a newer patched version --- IDENTIFIER: CWE-35 (Path Traversal: '.../...//') The product uses external input to construct a pathname that should be within a restricted directory, but it does not properly neutralize '.../...//' (doubled triple dot slash) sequences that can resolve to a location that is outside of that directory.
