CyberRota Analysis
This is a critical severity vulnerability with a CVSS score of 9.8. It affects WordPress. It may be remotely exploitable. Exploitation may require the attacker to be authenticated.
Original NVD Description
The Canto plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Remote File Inclusion in versions up to, and including, 3.0.4 via the 'wp_abspath' parameter. This allows unauthenticated attackers to include and execute arbitrary remote code on the server, provided that allow_url_include is enabled. Local File Inclusion is also possible, albeit less useful because it requires that the attacker be able to upload a malicious php file via FTP or some other means into a directory readable by the web server.
