Vendor: https://profiles.wordpress.org/haet/

Description: Customize your WP ecommerce store with HTML mail templates, message content, transaction results and PDF invoices with WYSIWYG editor and placeholders.
Vulnerability:
The code in ./wp-ecommerce-shop-styling/includes/download.php doesn't sanitize user input to prevent sensitive system files from being downloaded.

3 
4 header('Content-disposition: attachment; filename='.$_GET['filename']);
5 header('Content-type: application/pdf');
6 readfile(HAET_INVOICE_PATH.$_GET['filename']);

You'll have to rename the download file via mv -- -..-..-..-..-..-..-..-..-etc-passwd passwd as the filename is set to the download filename with path.
