TITLE:
WordPress PictPress Plugin "path" Disclosure of Sensitive Information

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA27962

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/27962/

CRITICAL:
Moderately critical

IMPACT:
Exposure of sensitive information

WHERE:
>From remote

SOFTWARE:
PictPress 1.x (plugin for WordPress)
http://secunia.com/product/16830/

DESCRIPTION:
GoLd_M has discovered a vulnerability in the PictPress plugin for
WordPress, which can be exploited by malicious people to disclose
sensitive information.

Input passed to the "path" parameter in resize.php is not properly
sanitised before being used in a call to "readfile()". This can be
exploited to disclose the content of arbitrary files via directory
traversal attacks.

Successful exploitation requires that the "pp_full_image" option is
enabled.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 1.0. Other versions may
also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
