What is CVE-2024-7315?

The Migration, Backup, Staging plugin for WordPress, prior to version 0.9.106, is susceptible to vulnerabilities due to ineffective randomness in the generated backup filenames. This deficiency allows attackers to exploit predictable filename patterns, increasing the likelihood of bruteforce attacks aimed at uncovering sensitive data within backup files. Proper measures to enhance filename randomness are essential to mitigate the risk of unauthorized information disclosure.

Affected Version(s)

Migration, Backup, Staging 0.9.103 < 0.9.106

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.
