 "title": "Xagio SEO & AEO – AI SEO for Google Rankings & AI Visibility <= 7.1.0.44 - Unauthenticated Sensitive Information Exposure via Database Backup Files",
 "description": "The Xagio SEO & AEO – AI SEO for Google Rankings & AI Visibility plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure via the backup, restore and clone features in all versions up to, and including, 7.1.0.44, due to the plugin writing the full database dump to a predictable, publicly accessible file (mysql.zip in the website root) and the per-table plain SQL files to fixed folders inside the plugin directory, which stay in place for the whole operation and are left behind if it fails or times out. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to download the site's database, including user password hashes and other sensitive data, by requesting the predictable path while a backup, restore or clone is running or after one has stopped part-way.",
