CVE-2017-20287Javo Spot theme for WordPress before 3.0.0 contains a path traversal vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to read arbitrary files via the fn parameter of the...
Executive summaryThe Javo Spot theme for WordPress contains an unauthenticated file-read flaw that lets anyone on the internet read arbitrary files from the server, including WordPress configuration files that hold database credentials. The advisory does not give a CVSS severity score. The advisory states that the theme vendor has fixed the issue, but it does not state a fixed version number, so administrators should confirm they are running the updated theme or apply the workaround. Technical summaryThis is a path traversal (local file inclusion) flaw in the jvfrm_spot_get_json AJAX action, reachable without authentication through the wp_ajax_nopriv hook. The attacker supplies a traversal sequence in the fn GET parameter, which is appended to the uploads directory and read, and the callback parameter must also be non-empty. The advisory says the flaw is in the Javo Spot theme before 3.0.0, but the fixed version is not stated beyond the vendor saying the issue was resolved. The advisory's suggested workaround is to remove the wp_ajax_jvfrm_spot_get_json and wp_ajax_nopriv_jvfrm_spot_get_json hooks through a functions.php snippet. No detection guidance, CVSS score, or evidence of exploitation in the wild is stated. Summaries are generated by AI from the linked advisory text. Confirm versions and fixes at the source.
