Technical details

The GetGenie plugin for WordPress (versions <= 4.4.1) is vulnerable to an unauthenticated sensitive data exposure flaw, classified as CWE-201 (Insertion of Sensitive Information Into Sent Data). The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to access sensitive information without any prior authentication or user interaction. This occurs because the plugin fails to properly restrict access to certain data outputs or logs. Attackers can leverage this exposed information to gain insights into the system's configuration or user details, which can facilitate more complex subsequent attacks. A patch is available in version 4.4.2.
