Detail

wp-admin/admin.php in WordPress and WordPress MU before 2.8.1 does not require administrative authentication to access the configuration of a plugin, which allows remote attackers to specify a configuration file in the page parameter to obtain sensitive information or modify this file, as demonstrated by the (1) collapsing-archives/options.txt, (2) akismet/readme.txt, (3) related-ways-to-take-action/options.php, (4) wp-security-scan/securityscan.php, and (5) wp-ids/ids-admin.php files. NOTE: this can be leveraged for cross-site scripting (XSS) and denial of service.

Open Source Vulnerability Database (OSVDB)

Id Description
55715 WordPress Plugin Configuration Module Exclude Actions By Term Field XSS

WordPress plugin configuration module contains a flaw that allows a remote cross site scripting attack. This flaw exists because the application does not validate the exclude actions by term field upon submission to the module. This could allow a user to create a specially crafted URL that would execute arbitrary code in a user's browser within the trust relationship between the browser and the server, leading to a loss of integrity.
