Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
The 1 Click WordPress Migration Plugin – 100% FREE for a limited time plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure in all versions up to, and including, 2.2 via the class-ocm-backup.php. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to extract sensitive data including usernames and their respective password hashes during a short window of time in which the backup is in process.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · moderate confidence

The 1 Click WordPress Migration Plugin (versions up to 2.2) exposes sensitive data including WordPress usernames and their password hashes through the class-ocm-backup.php file. Unauthenticated attackers can extract this data during the brief window when a backup operation is in progress, due to insufficient access controls on backup files.

MitigationUpdate the plugin to the latest version once available. Until then, disable the plugin or ensure backups are not accessible to unauthenticated users by restricting filesystem access and removing backup files immediately after creation.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Check plugin version
    In WordPress admin, go to Plugins > Installed Plugins and find '1clickmigration 1 Click Migration' or check the plugin header in its main PHP file for the Version constant
    Affected if The installed version is 2.1 or lower
  2. Verify vulnerable file exists
    Check if the file class-ocm-backup.php exists in the plugin directory at /wp-content/plugins/1clickmigration/ or similar path
    Affected if The file class-ocm-backup.php is present in the plugin directory
  3. Inspect backup directory permissions
    Check the wp-content directory for any newly created backup folders or files, and verify their file permissions using 'ls -la' or file manager
    Affected if Backup files are stored in a location accessible via web (readable by unauthenticated users)
  4. Test unauthenticated access to backup files
    Attempt to access a known or suspected backup file URL directly from a browser while not logged in, or check .htaccess / web server config for the backup directory
    Affected if Backup files can be downloaded by unauthenticated (not logged-in) users

A user is affected if the plugin version is 2.1 or lower AND backup files are accessible to unauthenticated users via the web.
