Does this matter?

High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.91%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.

Description

The Classyfrieds WordPress plugin through 3.8 does not properly check the uploaded file when an authenticated user adds a listing, only checking the content-type in the request. This allows any authenticated user to upload arbitrary PHP files via the Add Listing feature of the plugin, leading to RCE.
