Newsplus Shortcodes
Monthly
Local File Inclusion in the NewsPlus Shortcodes WordPress plugin (versions up to and including 4.2.0) allows an authenticated attacker to coerce the plugin into including arbitrary PHP-processable files from the server, enabling disclosure of sensitive files and potential code execution. The flaw stems from improper control of a filename passed to a PHP include/require statement (CWE-98). No public exploit was identified at the time of analysis, and it is not listed in CISA KEV; risk is moderated by high attack complexity and a required privilege level.
