Vulnerability Overview

The Tinymce Thumbnail Gallery plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Local File Inclusion in versions up to, and including, 1.0.7 via the 'href' parameter found in the ~/php/download-image.php file that can be directly accessed. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to retrieve information from local files such as wp-config.php.

Technical Analysis

REMEDIATION: Update to version 1.1.0, or a newer patched version --- IDENTIFIER: CWE-98 (Improper Control of Filename for Include/Require Statement in PHP Program ('PHP Remote File Inclusion')) The PHP application receives input from an upstream component, but it does not restrict or incorrectly restricts the input before its usage in require, include, or similar functions.
