Exported-file disclosure via indexable export directory
Published Aug 4, 2023 · Updated Apr 8, 2026
Sensitive information exposure in Smackcoders WP Ultimate CSV Importer 7.9.8 and earlier allows remote attackers to view exported files. The export-folder setup omits the index.php restriction that blocks web-server directory enumeration, leaving stored exports directly listable. No authentication or user interaction is required; exposure is limited to files present in the export folder.
