Descriptions

The LearnPress – WordPress LMS Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file uploads due to missing file type validation in the 'save_post_materials' function in versions up to, and including, 4.2.6.5. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Instructor-level permissions and above, to upload arbitrary files on the affected site's server which may make remote code execution possible.

El complemento LearnPress – WordPress LMS Plugin para WordPress es vulnerable a cargas de archivos arbitrarias debido a la falta de validación del tipo de archivo en la función 'save_post_materials' en versiones hasta la 4.2.6.5 incluida. Esto hace posible que atacantes autenticados, con permisos de nivel de instructor y superiores, carguen archivos arbitrarios en el servidor del sitio afectado, lo que puede hacer posible la ejecución remota de código.
