Description

The Javo Spot theme for WordPress is vulnerable to Directory Traversal in versions up to 3.0.0 via the 'fn' parameter found in the jvfrm_spot_get_json() function called via a nopriv AJAX action. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to read the contents of arbitrary files on the server, which can contain sensitive information.
