The Ultimate Member plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to directory traversal in versions up to, and including 2.5.0 due to insufficient input validation on the 'pack' parameter. This makes it possible for attackers with administrative privileges to supply arbitrary paths using traversal (../../) to access and include files outside of the intended directory. If an attacker can successfully upload a file with the exact name 'init.php' then remote code execution may also be possible.

CVSS

Score:4.7

Severity:Medium

Version: 2.5.0

There is a patch available in v2.5.1 and we strongly recommend you update to this version as soon as possible.
