Descriptions

The WPtouch WordPress plugin before 4.3.45 does not properly validate images to be uploaded, allowing high privilege users such as admin to upload arbitrary files on the server even when they should not be allowed to (for example in multisite setup)

El complemento WPtouch de WordPress anterior a 4.3.45 no valida correctamente las imágenes que se van a cargar, lo que permite a usuarios con privilegios elevados, como el administrador, cargar archivos arbitrarios en el servidor incluso cuando no se les debería permitir (por ejemplo, en una configuración multisitio).

The WPtouch plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file uploads due to missing file type validation when uploading images in versions up to, and including, 4.3.44. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with administrator-level permissions and above, to upload arbitrary files on the affected sites server which may make remote code execution possible.
