Descriptions

The Media Library Assistant plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Local File Inclusion and Remote Code Execution in versions up to, and including, 3.09. This is due to insufficient controls on file paths being supplied to the 'mla_stream_file' parameter from the ~/includes/mla-stream-image.php file, where images are processed via Imagick(). This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to supply files via FTP that will make directory lists, local file inclusion, and remote code execution possible.

El complemento Media Library Assistant para WordPress es vulnerable a la inclusión de archivos locales y la ejecución remota de código en versiones hasta la 3.09 incluida. Esto se debe a controles insuficientes en las rutas de archivo que se suministran al parámetro 'mla_stream_file' desde el archivo ~/includes/mla-stream-image.php, donde las imágenes se procesan a través de Imagick(). Esto hace posible que atacantes no autenticados proporcionen archivos a través de FTP que harán posible las listas de directorios, la inclusión de archivos locales y la ejecución remota de código.

WordPress Media Library Assistant plugin versions prior to 3.10 are affected by an unauthenticated remote reference to Imagick() conversion which allows attacker to perform local file inclusion and remote code execution depending on the Imagick configuration on the remote server.
