CVE-2024-12008

The W3 Total Cache plugin before version 2.8.2 contains an information disclosure flaw where debug log files are publicly accessible without authentication. An attacker can read the exposed logs to obtain sensitive data such as nonce values, which could then be leveraged for CSRF attacks. This vulnerability only affects installations where the debug feature has been manually enabled, as it is turned off by default.
