Description

WordPress Plugin Vmax Project Manager is prone to a local file inclusion vulnerability because it fails to sufficiently verify user-supplied input. Exploiting this issue may allow an attacker to obtain sensitive information that could aid in further attacks. WordPress Plugin Vmax Project Manager version 1.1 is vulnerable; prior versions may also be affected.

Remediation

Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly verified or disable the plugin until a fix is available
