Themes Vulnerabilities
Neosense Theme < 1.8 - Unrestricted File Upload
Description
Neosense is a commercial WordPress theme by dynamicpress.
Version 1.7 (and possibly earlier) includes in its theme directory a copy of the "qquploader" ajax file uploader, which does not verify user authorization.
Using this uploader, an attacker can upload any file to the site. The uploaded file is placed in the wp-content/uploads/YYYY/mm directory, which is normally writable.
The vulnerability can be used to achieve remote code execution by uploading a PHP script with extension .php or .phtml.
