WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities

Asgaros Forum < 2.7.1 - Unauthenticated Arbitrary File Upload

Description

The plugin allows forum administrators, who may not be WordPress (super-)administrators, to set insecure configuration that allows unauthenticated users to upload dangerous files (e.g. .php, .phtml), potentially leading to remote code execution.

Proof of Concept

Any user who has the rights to modify the settings area of the Asgaros plugin (/wp-admin/admin.php?page=asgarosforum-options), like forum administrators, can authorize users to upload malicious files (e.g. .php, .phtml files) on the site.

Affects Plugins

Fixed in 2.7.1
