Descriptions

The File Manager Pro plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Arbitrary File Upload in all versions up to, and including, 8.3.4 via the mk_check_filemanager_php_syntax AJAX function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber access and above, to execute code on the server. Version 8.3.5 introduces a capability check that prevents users lower than admin from executing this function.

El complemento File Manager Pro para WordPress es vulnerable a la carga arbitraria de archivos en todas las versiones hasta la 8.3.4 incluida, a través de la función mk_check_filemanager_php_syntax AJAX. Esto hace posible que atacantes autenticados, con acceso de suscriptor y superior, ejecuten código en el servidor. La versión 8.3.5 introduce una verificación de capacidad que evita que los usuarios inferiores a administrador ejecuten esta función.
