Unauthenticated configuration disclosure via exposed phpinfo script
Published Dec 12, 2024 · Updated Apr 8, 2026
Information exposure in ZealousWeb Accept Stripe Payments Using Contact Form 7 2.5 and earlier allows remote attackers to read PHP configuration data. The publicly reachable cf7sa-info.php script invokes phpinfo() without an authorization gate, returning runtime and server configuration details. No authentication or user interaction is required; the bounded impact is disclosure of configuration data that can support follow-on attacks.
