Descriptions

The Generate PDF using Contact Form 7 plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery to Arbitrary File Upload in versions up to, and including, 4.0.6. This is due to missing nonce validation and the plugin not properly validating a file or its path prior to deleting it in the 'wp_cf7_pdf_dashboard_html_page' function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to delete arbitrary files, including the wp-config.php file, which can make site takeover and remote code execution possible via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.

El complemento Generate PDF using Contact Form 7 para WordPress es vulnerable a Cross-Site Request Forgery para la carga arbitraria de archivos en versiones hasta la 4.0.6 incluida. Esto se debe a que falta la validación nonce y que el complemento no valida correctamente un archivo o su ruta antes de eliminarlo en la función 'wp_cf7_pdf_dashboard_html_page'. Esto hace posible que atacantes no autenticados eliminen archivos arbitrarios, incluido el archivo wp-config.php, lo que puede hacer posible la toma de control del sitio y la ejecución remota de código a través de una solicitud falsificada, siempre que puedan engañar a un administrador del sitio para que realice una acción como hacer clic en un enlace.

The Generate PDF using Contact Form 7 plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery to Arbitrary File Upload in versions up to, and including, 4.1.2. This is due to missing nonce validation and the plugin not properly validating a file or its path prior to deleting it in the 'wp_cf7_pdf_dashboard_html_page' function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to delete arbitrary files, including the wp-config.php file, which can make site takeover and remote code execution possible via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
