Descriptions

Unrestricted file upload vulnerability in the N-Media file uploader plugin before 3.4 for WordPress allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary PHP code by leveraging Author privileges to store a file.

Vulnerabilidad de la subida de ficheros sin restricciones en el plugin N-Media file uploader anterior a 3.4 para WordPress permite a usuarios remotos autenticados ejecutar código PHP arbitrario mediante el aprovechamiento de los privilegios de autor para almacenar un fichero.

The Frontend File Manager plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file uploads due to missing file type validation in the _template_uploader.php file in versions up to, and including, 3.5. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with author-level permissions and above, to upload arbitrary files on the affected sites server which may make remote code execution possible.
