Updraft Plus <= 1.22.24 - Information Disclosure via updraft_ajaxrestore

5.3
Insertion of Sensitive Information into Log File
CVSS 5.3 (Medium)
Publicly Published March 8, 2023
Last Updated January 22, 2024

Description

The Updraft Plus plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to information disclosure in versions up to, and including, 1.22.24. This is due to the fact that the 'updraft_ajaxrestore' function generates a log file containing system configuration information. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to trigger generation of such a log file, though it is only possible to access it on configurations that do not respect the "deny from all" directive.
