Until an official fix is available, users should consider restricting access to the directory where exported CSV files are stored, for example by implementing web server access controls or moving exported files to non-public locations. Monitoring for unauthorized access to these files is also recommended.
Description
The Secure Copy Content Protection and Content Locking plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to sensitive information exposure due to storage of exported CSV files in a publicly accessible directory with predictable filenames in all versions up to, and including, 4.9.2. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to access sensitive user data including emails, IP addresses, usernames, roles, and location data by directly accessing the exported CSV file.
