Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions TheCartPress eCommerce Shopping Cart plugin for WordPress versions prior to 1.3.9.3

Description A directory traversal issue exists, allowing remote administrators to read arbitrary files. This is achieved by using a .. (dot dot) in the tcp box path parameter in the "checkout editor settings" page to "wp-admin/admin.php".

Recommendations For versions prior to 1.3.9.3, update to version 1.3.9.3 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the checkout editor settings page in "wp-admin/admin.php" to minimize the risk of exploitation. Avoid using the tcp box path parameter in the affected page until the issue is resolved.
