CVE-2024-13869 Details
Description
The Migration, Backup, Staging – WPvivid Backup & Migration plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file uploads due to missing file type validation in the 'upload_files' function in all versions up to, and including, 0.9.112. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Administrator-level access and above, to upload arbitrary files on the affected site's server which may make remote code execution possible. NOTE: Uploaded files are only accessible on WordPress instances running on the NGINX web server as the existing .htaccess within the target file upload folder prevents access on Apache servers.
A vulnerability exists in the WPvivid Backup & Migration plugin for WordPress, specifically in versions through 0.9.112. The issue arises from inadequate validation of file types in the 'upload_files' function, allowing authenticated users with Administrator-level access to upload arbitrary files to the server. This vulnerability could potentially lead to remote code execution. However, it's important to note that uploaded files are only accessible on WordPress sites using the NGINX web server, as the default .htaccess file in the upload directory blocks access on Apache servers.
Users are advised to update the WPvivid Backup & Migration plugin to version 0.9.113 or later.
