Technical details

An unrestricted file upload vulnerability (CWE-434) exists in the Ecommerce Zone theme for WordPress in versions up to and including 0.9.7. The flaw allows an authenticated attacker with Subscriber-level permissions to upload files with dangerous extensions, such as .php, to the server. Because the application fails to properly validate the file type or content, an attacker can achieve remote code execution (RCE) by accessing the uploaded file. This vulnerability has a CVSS score of 9.9 due to the potential for full system compromise and the low privilege requirement. A fix is available in version 0.9.8.
