Unauthenticated protected attachment disclosure via unchecked ZIP creation
Published Oct 15, 2025 · Updated Oct 15, 2025
Missing authorization in Ricard Torres Zip Attachments 1.6 and earlier allows remote attackers to download protected post attachments. The za_create_zip_callback function creates a ZIP without checking caller capability or validating whether the parent post is private or password-protected. No authentication is required; the resulting archive exposes attachments intended to remain restricted.
