Description

The W3 Total Cache plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Server-Side Request Forgery in versions up to, and including, 0.9.4. This is due to a minify function incorrectly restricting path input. This makes it possible for attackers to access restricted resources on private networks by using a vulnerable installation as a limited HTTP GET proxy.
