MEDIUM 6.1EPSS 1.20%

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.20%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

The sanitisation step of the Safe SVG WordPress plugin before 1.9.10 can be bypassed by spoofing the content-type in the POST request to upload a file. Exploiting this vulnerability, an attacker will be able to perform the kinds of attacks that this plugin should prevent (mainly XSS, but depending on further use of uploaded SVG files potentially other XML attacks).
