Description#

The W3 Total Cache WordPress plugin before 2.10.6 does not confine a media-import file copy to the document root, nor enforce an effective file-type restriction on it, allowing users with the Author role or higher to plant content that, once an administrator runs the import, copies an arbitrary server-readable file into a publicly served directory, exposing it to unauthenticated retrieval.

Impact#

Per CVSS v3.1: confidentiality impact high, integrity impact none, availability impact none. Attack vector: network.

Weaknesses#

CWE-22 Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal')
