Full path disclosure via unguarded Mobile Detect files
Published Jul 10, 2024 · Updated Apr 8, 2026
Full path disclosure in WPMU DEV SmartCrawl 3.10.8 and earlier allows remote attackers to read the web application's absolute path. Direct requests to bundled Mobile Detect PHP files execute them outside WordPress; resulting PHP errors expose server filesystem paths because the files lack a direct-access guard. Unauthenticated network access is sufficient, but the disclosed path has no direct effect without another flaw that can use it.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
