Until an official fix is available, restrict Subscriber-level user access and monitor for suspicious activity related to file inclusion. Avoid uploading PHP files or enabling their execution through the plugin. Follow vendor updates closely for patches or official mitigations.
Description
The Widget for Google Reviews plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Directory Traversal in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.15 via the layout parameter. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to include and execute arbitrary files on the server, allowing the execution of any PHP code in those files. This can be used to bypass access controls, obtain sensitive data, or achieve code execution in cases where images and other “safe” file types can be uploaded and included. This is limited to just PHP files.
