Unauthenticated data exposure via retained import files
Published Oct 24, 2024 · Updated May 11, 2026
Sensitive data exposure in Schema & Structured Data for WP & AMP 1.3.5 and earlier allows remote attackers to read uploaded import files. The settings import path retains uploaded files under the web-accessible WordPress uploads directory instead of deleting them after import. No authentication or user interaction is required, and exposure is limited to data present in those retained files.
