Description
ChurcHope theme for WordPress before 2.2 contains a path traversal vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to download arbitrary files through the 'file' parameter of /wp-content/themes/churchope/lib/downloadlink.php. Attackers can supply directory traversal sequences to read sensitive files like wp-config.php or /etc/passwd, exposing database credentials. Exploitation evidence was first observed by the Shadowserver Foundation on 2023-10-18.
