GHSA-98V8-MH4J-WQG7

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2024-10-16 09:30 – Updated: 2024-10-16 09:30

Details

The Frontend File Manager (versions < 4.0), N-Media Post Front-end Form (versions < 1.1) plugins for WordPress are vulnerable to arbitrary file uploads due to missing file type validation via the nm_filemanager_upload_file and nm_postfront_upload_file AJAX actions. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to upload arbitrary files on the affected sites server which may make remote code execution possible.

Severity ?

9.8 (Critical)


                  
                    CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
