Unauthenticated file disclosure via decoded path traversal
Published Jun 15, 2026 · Updated Jun 15, 2026
Local file inclusion in Kaymee Photography Photocart Link 1.6 allows remote attackers to read arbitrary server files through decode.php. The endpoint base64-decodes the id request parameter and passes the resulting path directly to readfile without validation or path restriction. No authentication is required; a crafted traversal path can disclose WordPress configuration and database credentials but does not modify files.
