Descriptions

The Redux Framework plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthenticated JSON file uploads due to missing authorization and capability checks on the Redux_Color_Scheme_Import function in versions 4.4.12 to 4.4.17. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to upload JSON files, which can be used to conduct stored cross-site scripting attacks and, in some rare cases, when the wp_filesystem fails to initialize - to Remote Code Execution.

El complemento Redux Framework para WordPress es vulnerable a cargas de archivos JSON no autenticados debido a la falta de autorización y comprobaciones de capacidad en la función Redux_Color_Scheme_Import en las versiones 4.4.12 a 4.4.17. Esto hace posible que atacantes no autenticados carguen archivos JSON, que pueden usarse para realizar ataques de Cross Site Scripting almacenado y, en algunos casos raros, cuando wp_filesystem no se inicializa, para la ejecución remota de código.
