• → Send an unauthenticated HTTP GET request to /wp-content/uploads/prime-mover-export-files/1/ and check for directory listing response containing 'Index of /wp-content/uploads/prime-mover-export-files/1' or '.wprime' in the body with HTTP 200 status. ↗
• → Look for WordPress sites exposing the Prime Mover plugin path in page body as a passive discovery signal. ↗
• → Exploitation requires no authentication; unauthenticated attackers can directly access the export directory to extract sensitive data including password hashes. ↗

• · The vulnerable directory listing path includes a user-ID subfolder ('1/'); other user IDs may also be exposed if additional WordPress users have export files. ↗
• · Affected versions are all Prime Mover releases up to and including 1.9.2; the fix was introduced in 1.9.3. ↗
