Descriptions

The Motors WordPress plugin before 1.4.4 does not properly validate uploaded files for dangerous file types (such as .php) in an AJAX action, allowing an attacker to sign up on a victim's WordPress instance, upload a malicious PHP file and attempt to launch a brute-force attack to discover the uploaded payload.

El complemento de WordPress Motors anterior a 1.4.4 no valida adecuadamente los archivos cargados para tipos de archivos peligrosos (como .php) en una acción AJAX, lo que permite a un atacante registrarse en la instancia de WordPress de una víctima, cargar un archivo PHP malicioso e intentar iniciar un ataque de fuerza bruta para descubrir el payload cargado.

The Motors – Car Dealer, Classifieds & Listin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file uploads due to missing file type validation via the stm_ajax_add_a_car_media function for a nopriv AJAX action in versions up to, and including, 1.4.3. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to upload arbitrary files on the affected sites server which may make remote code execution possible.
