WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities

Easy WP SMTP < 1.4.3 - Debug Log Disclosure

Description

The plugin has an optional debug log file generated with a random name, located in the plugin folder and which contains all email messages sent. However, this folder does not have any index page, allowing access to log file on servers with the directory listing enabled or misconfigured. This could allow attackers to gain unauthorised access to the blog by reseting the admin password by getting the reset link from the log.
