• Product: Site Editor WordPress Plugin - https://wordpress.org/plugins/site-editor/
  Vendor: Site Editor
  Tested version: 1.1.1
  CVE ID: CVE-2018-7422
  
  ** CVE description **
  A Local File Inclusion vulnerability in the Site Editor plugin through 1.1.1 for WordPress allows remote attackers to retrieve arbitrary files via the ajax_path parameter to editor/extensions/pagebuilder/includes/ajax_shortcode_pattern.php.
  
  ** Technical details **
  In site-editor/editor/extensions/pagebuilder/includes/ajax_shortcode_pattern.php:5, the value of the ajax_path parameter is used for including a file with PHP’s require_once(). This parameter can be controlled by an attacker and is not properly sanitized.
  
  Vulnerable code:
  if( isset( $_REQUEST['ajax_path'] ) && is_file( $_REQUEST['ajax_path'] ) && file_exists( $_REQUEST['ajax_path'] ) ){
  require_once $_REQUEST['ajax_path'];
  }
  
  https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/site-editor/trunk/editor/extensions/pagebuilder/includes/ajax_shortcode_pattern.php?rev=1640500#L5
  
  By providing a specially crafted path to the vulnerable parameter, a remote attacker can retrieve the contents of sensitive files on the local system.
