Technical details
The LearnPress – Backup & Migration Tool plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file reading due to improper path validation in the 'import-user-file' parameter. This directory traversal vulnerability (CWE-22) allows authenticated attackers with administrator-level privileges to bypass intended directory restrictions. By supplying specially crafted paths, an attacker can read the contents of sensitive files on the server. The issue exists in the class-lp-import-user-data.php component and is addressed in versions following 4.1.4.
