Technical details
The plugin fails to properly validate the 'guid' parameter in the REST API background processes controller, allowing path traversal. Authenticated attackers with subscriber-level access can exploit this to bypass path containment checks via the realpath() function, which returns false when the uploads/tainacan directory does not exist, collapsing the base path validation. This leads to arbitrary file read on the server filesystem.
