CVE-2026-11974Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Unauthenticated file disclosure and SSRF via cloud URLs

Published Jul 29, 2026 · Updated Jul 29, 2026

Path traversal in JoomUnited WP Media Folder Addon 4.1.6 and earlier allows remote attackers to read server files via AJAX. The wpmf_nextcloud_get_content and wpmf_owncloud_get_content actions pass an unvalidated url parameter to a file-read operation, accepting file:// and PHP filter wrappers. A configured Nextcloud or ownCloud connection is required; no authentication is required, and crafted URLs also trigger server-side requests.
