Vulnerability Overview

The Quickcreator – AI Blog Writer plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure in versions 0.0.9 to 0.1.17 through the /wp-content/plugins/quickcreator/dupasrala.txt file. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to view the plugin's API key and subsequently use that to perform actions on the site like creating new posts and injecting XSS payloads.

Technical Analysis

The vector marks this flaw as remotely reachable over the network, with low attack complexity — no special timing or configuration is needed, and no privileges on the target site, and no interaction from a victim user. A successful exploit has high impact on confidentiality.

CWE-532: Insertion of Sensitive Information into Log File

The product writes sensitive information to a log file.

Remediation

Update to version 0.1.18, or a newer patched version

How does WordSec protect against this?

This one needs no account at all, which puts it outside what login hardening can reach; WordSec's login security narrows the account-level paths around it, and the firewall is what inspects the request itself. None of that substitutes for the fix: Quickcreator 0.1.18 closes this, and updating the plugin is the step that ends it.
