Technical details
An arbitrary file upload vulnerability exists in the MDJM Event Management plugin for WordPress due to a lack of file type, extension, or MIME type validation in the mdjm_send_comm_email() function. The vulnerability is located in 'includes/admin/communications/comms-functions.php' where user-supplied files from the 'mdjm_email_upload_file' parameter are passed directly to move_uploaded_file() without sanitization. An authenticated attacker with administrator-level privileges (or the 'mdjm_comms_send' capability) can upload executable PHP files to the WordPress uploads directory. This can be leveraged to achieve remote code execution (RCE) on the underlying server. A patch was introduced in version 1.7.8.4 to address this issue.
