Descriptions

The WP Photo Album Plus plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary shortcode execution in all versions up to, and including, 8.7.02.003. This is due to the plugin allowing unauthenticated users to execute an action that does not properly validate a value before running do_shortcode. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary shortcodes.

El complemento WP Photo Album Plus para WordPress es vulnerable a la ejecución arbitraria de códigos cortos en todas las versiones hasta la 8.7.02.003 incluida. Esto se debe a que el complemento permite a usuarios no autenticados ejecutar una acción que no valida correctamente un valor antes de ejecutar do_shortcode. Esto hace posible que atacantes no autenticados ejecuten códigos cortos arbitrarios.
