Deeper analysis
The vulnerability is a PHP Local File Inclusion flaw (CWE-98) resulting from improper control of filenames in include/require statements. It affects the Just Post Preview Widget plugin for WordPress, developed by Alex Prokopenko / JustCoded, in all versions through 1.1.1.
An authenticated user with low privileges can exploit the issue over the network, although successful exploitation requires high attack complexity. By supplying a crafted filename, the attacker can force inclusion of arbitrary local files, potentially leading to disclosure of sensitive information, code execution, or full compromise of the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the affected WordPress site.
