Summary
The Backup, Restore and Migrate WordPress Sites With the XCloner Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Full Path Disclosure in all versions up to, and including, 4.7.3. This is due the plugin utilizing sabre without preventing direct access to the files.

The information displayed is not useful on its own, and requires another vulnerability to be present for damage to an affected website.
