Summary

The Import WP – Export and Import CSV and XML files plugin for WordPress up to version 2.14.17 is vulnerable to sensitive information exposure due to a lack of .htaccess protection. Unauthenticated attackers can extract sensitive data from exports stored in /exportwp and import data stored in /importwp.

Risk Assessment

The risk includes leakage of sensitive data such as personal or business information, which could be used for identity theft or espionage.

Recommendation

It is recommended to immediately update the plugin to the latest version and add .htaccess rules to protect the /exportwp and /importwp directories.

Other vulnerabilities in Import WP

CVE-2026-14925High
The Import WP WordPress plugin before 2.14.23 does not perform any authorization check on one of its export-file download handlers. Unauthenticated attackers can download export files generated by administrators, which may contain user personal data such as email addresses, login names and roles. Exploitation requires an unconsumed export to already exist and a low-entropy, time-based download key to be obtained.
