Summary

The Custom Query Shortcode plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Path Traversal in all versions up to, and including, 0.4.0 via the 'lens' parameter. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to read the contents of files on the server, which can contain sensitive information.

Does this affect you?

Add your gear to cvedb and we'll alert you only when a vendor you run ships something exploited.
