NVD has published CVE-2014-125130 on a CVSS 7.5 unauthenticated file read issue in the CodeArt Google MP3 Audio Player WordPress plugin through version 1.0.11. Remote attackers can reach wp-config.php and further sensitive files to enable site compromise, with exploitation first noted in 2023.
Remote attackers may use a path traversal sequence in the file parameter of direct_download.php to fetch sensitive data like configuration files.
Such files often hold database credentials along with secret keys, which can result in complete takeover of the site.
