CVE-2025-12846

Full vulnerability record from the local CVENow database.

Description

The Blocksy Companion plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authenticated arbitrary file upload in all versions up to, and including, 2.1.19. This is due to insufficient file type validation detecting SVG files, allowing double extension files to bypass sanitization while being accepted as a valid SVG file. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with author level access and above, to upload arbitrary files on the affected site's server which may make remote code execution possible.

Esto se debe a una validación insuficiente del tipo de archivo al detectar archivos SVG, permitiendo que archivos con doble extensión eludan la sanitización mientras son aceptados como un archivo SVG válido. Esto hace posible que atacantes autenticados, con acceso de nivel de autor y superior, carguen archivos arbitrarios en el servidor del sitio afectado, lo que puede hacer posible la ejecución remota de código."
