Pixabay · Pixabay Images · CVE-2015-1365
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions** Pixabay Images plugin versions prior to 2.4 **Description** The issue allows remote attackers to write to arbitrary files via a .. (dot dot) in the `q` parameter. This is a directory traversal vulnerability in the pixabay-images.php file. **Recommendations** For versions prior to 2.4, update to version 2.4 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the pixabay-images.php file to minimize the risk of exploitation. Avoid using the `q` parameter in the affected API endpoint until the issue is resolved.
