https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2024-7031

The File Manager Pro – Filester plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the 'njt_fs_saveSettingRestrictions' function in all versions up to, and including, 1.8.2. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with a role that has been granted permissions by an Administrator, to update the plugin settings for user role restrictions, including allowing file types such as .php to be uploaded. • https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/filester/trunk/includes/File_manager/FileManager.php#L566 https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/3129722 https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/id/aef584bd-60a5-4bf2-b8d3-58e3b45e785e?source=cve • CWE-862: Missing Authorization •
