Descriptions

Unrestricted Upload of File with Dangerous Type vulnerability in ThemeFusion Avada.This issue affects Avada: from n/a through 7.11.1.

Carga sin restricciones de archivos con vulnerabilidad de tipo peligroso en ThemeFusion Avada. Este problema afecta a Avada: desde n/a hasta 7.11.1.

The Avada theme for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file uploads due to missing file type validation in the 'ajax_import_options' function in versions up to, and including, 7.11.1. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with contributor permissions to upload arbitrary files on the affected site's server which may make remote code execution possible if they are able to successfully exploit a race condition.
