    Title
    WP Ultimate CSV Importer <= 7.9.8 - Authenticated (Author+) Remote Code Execution
    Summary
    The WP Ultimate CSV Importer plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Remote Code Execution in versions up to, and including, 7.9.8 via the '->cus1' parameter. This allows authenticated attackers with author-level permissions or above, if the administrator previously grants access in the plugin settings, to execute code on the server. The author resolved this vulnerability by removing the ability for authors and editors to import files, please note that this means remote code execution is still possible for site administrators, use the plugin with caution.

    CVE-2023-4140 (GCVE-0-2023-4140)

    Vulnerability from nvd – Published: 2023-08-04 02:04 – Updated: 2026-04-08 16:56

    Title
    WP Ultimate CSV Importer <= 7.9.8 - Arbitrary Usermeta Update to Authenticated (Author+) Privilege Escalation
    Summary
    The WP Ultimate CSV Importer plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to privilege escalation in versions up to, and including, 7.9.8 due to insufficient restriction on the 'get_header_values' function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with minimal permissions such as an author, if the administrator previously grants access in the plugin settings, to modify their user role by supplying the 'wp_capabilities->cus1' parameter.

    Title
    WP Ultimate CSV Importer <= 7.9.8 - Authenticated (Author+) PHP File Creation to Remote Code Execution
    Summary
    The WP Ultimate CSV Importer plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Remote Code Execution in versions up to, and including, 7.9.8 via the '->cus2' parameter. This allows authenticated attackers with author-level permissions or above, if the administrator previously grants access in the plugin settings, to create a PHP file and execute code on the server. The author resolved this vulnerability by removing the ability for authors and editors to import files, please note that this means php file creation is still allowed for site administrators, use the plugin with caution.

    Title
    WP Ultimate CSV Importer <= 7.9.8 - Authenticated (Author+) Remote Code Execution
    Summary
    The WP Ultimate CSV Importer plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Remote Code Execution in versions up to, and including, 7.9.8 via the '->cus1' parameter. This allows authenticated attackers with author-level permissions or above, if the administrator previously grants access in the plugin settings, to execute code on the server. The author resolved this vulnerability by removing the ability for authors and editors to import files, please note that this means remote code execution is still possible for site administrators, use the plugin with caution.

    Title
    WP Ultimate CSV Importer <= 7.9.8 - Arbitrary Usermeta Update to Authenticated (Author+) Privilege Escalation
    Summary
    The WP Ultimate CSV Importer plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to privilege escalation in versions up to, and including, 7.9.8 due to insufficient restriction on the 'get_header_values' function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with minimal permissions such as an author, if the administrator previously grants access in the plugin settings, to modify their user role by supplying the 'wp_capabilities->cus1' parameter.
