Unauthenticated arbitrary server file download
Published Oct 9, 2026 · Updated Oct 9, 2026
Path traversal in PDF for Contact Form 7 7.1.0 and earlier allows remote attackers to read server files via unauthenticated downloads. Patchstack has not disclosed the affected endpoint, function, or exact pathname-handling operation in the add-ons.org plugin. Exploitation requires network access but no account or user interaction; the reported consequence is file disclosure, not file modification or service interruption.
