HUSKY: file inclusion

What's happening

HUSKY has a file inclusion flaw in every version up to 1.4.4 (included): an attacker can make the site load files from the server: they can read private data and sometimes run code and take over the site. Anyone can exploit it, without an account on the site. More than 80,000 websites use it.

What to do

Update HUSKY to version 1.4.5 or later (Dashboard → Plugins in WordPress). If you can't update yet, deactivate it until you can.
