HTTP: WordPress UnGallery 'pic' Parameter Local File Disclosure
A directory traversal vulnerability exists in the WordPress UnGallery Plugin. It is due to insufficient validation of user supplied input. Successful exploitation would allow attackers to download and view arbitrary files from the target server.
Extended Description
The UnGallery plug-in for WordPress is prone to a local file-disclosure vulnerability because it fails to adequately validate user-supplied input. Exploiting this vulnerability would allow an attacker to obtain potentially sensitive information from local files on computers running the vulnerable application. This may aid in further attacks. Versions prior to UnGallery 1.5.9 are vulnerable.
