Summary

The Chartify – WordPress Chart Plugin, utilized for creating charts within WordPress sites, is susceptible to a Local File Inclusion (LFI) vulnerability in all versions up to and including 2.9.5. The flaw is triggered through the 'source' parameter, allowing unauthenticated attackers to include and execute arbitrary files on the server. This vulnerability poses significant risks, as it enables the potential execution of PHP code contained in these files, leading to a range of malicious outcomes such as bypassing access controls, accessing sensitive information, and executing unauthorized code. Properly securing and updating the plugin is critical to safeguarding WordPress installations.

Exploit Proof of Concept (PoC)

PoC code is written by security researchers to demonstrate the vulnerability can be exploited. PoC code is also a key component for weaponization which could lead to ransomware.
