CVE-2026-111255 Details
Description
The affiliate-toolkit – Multi-Network Affiliate & Amazon Product Display plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Arbitrary File Upload in all versions up to, and including, 3.9.2 via the upload_image function. This is due to insufficient file type validation in upload_image due to a weak Content-Type prefix check and extension derivation from the attacker-controlled URL path, with no dangerous-extension stripping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to upload files that may be executable, which makes remote code execution possible. Exploitation requires the "import product image" option to be enabled in the plugin settings, as this activates the image download pipeline triggered on product post save.
A vulnerability allowing arbitrary file upload has been identified in the Affiliate Toolkit WordPress plugin, specifically in versions through 3.9.2. The issue arises in the 'upload_image' function, where inadequate file type validation allows authenticated attackers with contributor-level access or higher to upload potentially executable files. This vulnerability could lead to remote code execution. Exploitation requires the 'import product image' option to be enabled in the plugin settings, which activates an image download process when a product post is saved.
Users are advised to update the Affiliate Toolkit WordPress plugin to version 3.9.3 or a newer patched version.
