Summary

Vulnerability in the Store Locator WordPress plugin (before version 1.6.9) allows high-privileged users (e.g., administrators) to read arbitrary .php files on the server, including configuration files containing database credentials and authentication keys.

Risk Assessment

Risk of full server compromise via leakage of database credentials and keys, potentially leading to data theft and further attacks.

Recommendation

Update the Store Locator plugin to version 1.6.9 or later. Restrict administrator privileges and regularly audit file access.

Original NVD description (English source)

The Store Locator WordPress plugin before 1.6.9 does not validate a parameter before using it in a file path, allowing high-privileged users such as administrators to read arbitrary `.php` files from the server, including configuration files that contain database credentials and authentication keys.
