This vulnerability resides in the \u0026lsquo;_get_media_url\u0026rsquo; and \u0026lsquo;_check_file_path\u0026rsquo; functions and stems from a lack of proper file type validation. An authenticated attacker, with subscriber-level privileges or higher, can exploit this flaw to upload malicious files, including those that are executable. Successful exploitation can lead to remote code execution on the affected WordPress server. A partial patch was implemented in version 7.0.10, and a complete fix is available in version 7.0.11.
