Description

The WPvivid backup plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file read due to missing parameter sanitization and validation on the 'file_name' parameter in versions up to, and including, 0.9.75. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with administrator level permissions and above, to access arbitrary files on the affected sites server.
