Vulnerability Overview

The Drag and Drop Multiple File Upload PRO plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Path Traversal in versions up to, and including, 2.10.9 due to insufficient restrictions on the path supplied to the upload_dir value. This allows authenticated attackers to upload files to arbitrary locations on a webserver.

Technical Analysis

REMEDIATION: Update to version 2.11.0, or a newer patched version --- IDENTIFIER: CWE-22 (Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal')) The product uses external input to construct a pathname that is intended to identify a file or directory that is located underneath a restricted parent directory, but the product does not properly neutralize special elements within the pathname that can cause the pathname to resolve to a location that is outside of the restricted directory.
