Description
The WP Webhooks plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file copy due to missing validation of user-supplied input in all versions up to, and including, 3.3.5.

This can be used to copy the contents of wp-config.php into a text file which can then be accessed in a browser to reveal database credentials.
