WordPress MiwoFTP Plugin 1.0.5 <= Arbitrary File Download
The WordPress MiwoFTP Plugin 1.0.5 allows an attacker to download arbitrary files from the server by exploiting a vulnerability in the 'download' action of the 'com_miwoftp' component. By manipulating the 'item' parameter in the URL, an attacker can specify the file they want to download, such as the 'wp-config.php' file.
Mitigation:
Update to the latest version of the MiwoFTP plugin or remove it if not needed. Ensure that the plugin is from a trusted source and regularly monitor for any suspicious activity.
