CVE-2024-7412: CWE-200 Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor in coffee2code No Update Nag
The No Update Nag plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Full Path Disclosure in all versions up to, and including, 1.4.12. This is due to the plugin allowing direct access to the bootstrap.php file which has display_errors on. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to retrieve the full path of the web application, which can be used to aid other attacks. The information displayed is not useful on its own, and requires another vulnerability to be present for damage to an affected website.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2024-7412 is a vulnerability in the coffee2code No Update Nag WordPress plugin (up to version 1.4.12) where direct access to bootstrap.php with display_errors enabled allows unauthenticated attackers to retrieve the full path of the web application. This is classified as CWE-200 (Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor). The disclosed information is limited to the full filesystem path and does not directly compromise confidentiality, integrity, or availability but may facilitate further attacks if other vulnerabilities exist.
Potential Impact
The vulnerability exposes the full filesystem path of the affected web application to unauthenticated attackers. This information disclosure is considered low impact on its own, as it does not reveal sensitive data or allow direct compromise. However, it can be leveraged in conjunction with other vulnerabilities to increase the effectiveness of attacks against the affected site.
Mitigation Recommendations
No official patch or fix is currently available for this vulnerability. Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until a fix is released, it is recommended to restrict direct access to the bootstrap.php file and disable display_errors in the production environment to prevent information leakage.
