Last modified
CVE-2022-1390 is a critical-severity vulnerability rated 9.8/10 on the CVSS scale. The Admin Word Count Column WordPress plugin through 2.2 does not validate the path parameter given to readfile(), which could allow unauthenticated attackers to read arbitrary files on server running old version of PHP susceptible to the null byte technique.
