The Canto plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Remote File Inclusion in versions up to, and including, 3.0.4 via the 'wp_abspath' parameter. This allows unauthenticated attackers to include and execute arbitrary remote code on the server, provided that allow_url_include is enabled. Local File Inclusion is also possible, albeit less useful because it requires that the attacker be able to upload a malicious php file via FTP or some other means into a directory readable by the web server.
CVE-2023-3452 is a critical severity with CVSS 9.8 Local File Inclusion issue affecting the Plugin Canto. It affects Versions up to 3.0.4 and is fixed in 3.0.5.
CVE-2023-3452 is tracked for the Plugin Canto as critical severity with CVSS 9.8. The affected range is Versions up to 3.0.4. Update Canto to 3.0.5 or newer where that version is compatible with the site.
