CVE-2017-20289Broadstreet Ad Widget plugin for WordPress 2.2.0 before 2.12.0 contains a local file inclusion vulnerability that allows authenticated users to execute attacker-chosen PHP...
Executive summaryThe Broadstreet Ad Widget plugin for WordPress is affected by a file inclusion flaw that lets a logged-in user run attacker-chosen PHP code on the server. The advisory rates it as medium risk, and the vendor has released an update that the advisory urges all users to install. Technical summaryThe flaw is a local file inclusion (CWE-98) in ad-widget/views/modal/index.php, where the step GET parameter is passed to a PHP require call with ".php" appended. An attacker must get an authenticated WordPress administrator to load a crafted URL, which can be done through social engineering or phishing; the advisory states that an attacker can then execute any valid PHP code. If allow_url_include=1 is set, remote files may also be included, and on PHP versions below 5.3.4 a null byte (%00) can drop the appended extension. The advisory says the affected range is 2.10.0 and below for the plugin, and the title of the cited page refers to 2.10.0, while the fixed version is not stated beyond a vendor update being released on 2017/04/04. No workaround and no detection guidance are stated, and whether the flaw has been exploited in the wild is not stated. Summaries are generated by AI from the linked advisory text.
