Description

The Booster for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file downloads due to missing sanitization and filename validation of a user-supplied parameter in versions up to, and including, 5.6.6 (5.6.4 for Booster Plus). This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Shop Manager-level permissions and above, to download arbitrary files on the affected sites server.
