MiwoFTP - File & Folder Manager <= 1.0.4 - Arbitrary File Disclosure
Description
A hook is added to ‘init’ in the file ‘miwoftp/miwoftp.php’. This hook is triggered whenever a user visits the front end of the site. The function specified in this hook will proceed to allow the user to download a file within the scope of the home directory of the site. Various values from the GET scope are used when specifying the path, however these values are placed into a separate array named $GLOBALS.
