CVE-2024-7627
The Bit File Manager plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Remote Code Execution in versions 6.0 to 6.5.5 via the 'checkSyntax' function.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.80%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
The Bit File Manager plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Remote Code Execution in versions 6.0 to 6.5.5 via the 'checkSyntax' function. This is due to writing a temporary file to a publicly accessible directory before performing file validation. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to execute code on the server if an administrator has allowed Guest User read permissions.
