Descriptions

The Auto Featured Image plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file uploads due to missing file type validation in the 'create_post_attachment_from_url' function in all versions up to, and including, 1.2. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level and above permissions, to upload arbitrary files on the affected site's server which may make remote code execution possible.

El complemento Auto Featured Image para WordPress es vulnerable a cargas de archivos arbitrarias debido a la falta de validación del tipo de archivo en la función 'create_post_attachment_from_url' en todas las versiones hasta la 1.2 incluida. Esto hace posible que atacantes autenticados, con permisos de nivel de colaborador y superiores, carguen archivos arbitrarios en el servidor del sitio afectado, lo que puede hacer posible la ejecución remota de código.
