Description
The Slider Revolution plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Path Traversal in all versions up to, and including, 6.7.36 via the 'used_svg' and 'used_images' parameters. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to read the contents of arbitrary files on the server, which can contain sensitive information.
