CVE-2024-6499Network attack vector

Full path disclosure via directly accessible converter

Published Aug 24, 2024 · Updated Apr 8, 2026

Information exposure in Max Foundry MaxButtons 9.7.8 and earlier allows remote attackers to obtain server filesystem paths without authentication. The Font Awesome 5 convert.php helper permits direct web execution without a WordPress bootstrap guard, causing PHP diagnostic output to reveal its absolute location. Successful disclosure depends on the diagnostic reaching the HTTP response and provides reconnaissance information rather than direct data modification or service interruption.
