Unscored Scanner template Public exploit CVE-2021-24499 EUVD-2021-11411GHSA-r7ww-r6jj-2jrh

Workreap theme < 2.2.2 - Unauthenticated Upload Leading to Remote Code Execution

Published Aug 9, 2021 · Updated Aug 3, 2024 · Assigned by WPScan

Category: Web / CMS

Description

The Workreap WordPress theme before 2.2.2 AJAX actions workreap_award_temp_file_uploader and workreap_temp_file_uploader did not perform nonce checks, or validate that the request is from a valid user in any other way. The endpoints allowed for uploading arbitrary files to the uploads/workreap-temp directory. Uploaded files were neither sanitized nor validated, allowing an unauthenticated visitor to upload executable code such as php scripts.
