Vulnerability Overview

The WooCommerce Amazon Affiliates plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Arbitrary File Upload due to missing file type validation in the validate_connection function in versions before 9.0.2.16. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to upload arbitrary files on the affected sites server which may make remote code execution possible.

Technical Analysis

REMEDIATION: Update to version 9.0.2.16, or a newer patched version --- IDENTIFIER: CWE-434 (Unrestricted Upload of File with Dangerous Type) The product allows the upload or transfer of dangerous file types that are automatically processed within its environment.
