Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · moderate confidence

The Woostagram Connect plugin for WordPress contains an unrestricted file upload vulnerability allowing attackers to upload executable scripts (web shells) directly to the web server's document root. The plugin fails to validate file types or sanitize uploaded files, enabling remote code execution upon access to the uploaded malicious script.

MitigationImplement strict allowlist-based file type validation, store uploaded files outside the web root, disable script execution in upload directories, and apply any available vendor patches.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Verify if Woostagram Connect plugin is installed
    Check the WordPress plugins directory at wp-content/plugins/ for a folder named 'woostagram-connect' or containing 'woostagram' and list its contents.
    Affected if The plugin folder exists in the WordPress plugins directory.
  2. Identify the installed plugin version
    Open the main plugin file (typically woostagram-connect.php or similar in the plugin folder) and locate the version declaration in the plugin header comment, or check the readme.txt file for the 'Stable tag' version.
    Affected if The version number returned is 1.0.2 or lower.
  3. Locate the plugin's file upload functionality
    Search the plugin files for upload-related code: look for functions containing 'upload', 'wp_upload_bits', 'move_uploaded_file', or 'wp_handle_upload'. Identify the form action or AJAX endpoint handling uploads.
    Affected if The plugin contains file upload handling code and the upload functionality is present and accessible.
  4. Verify upload directory is web-accessible
    Check the plugin configuration or code to determine the upload path. By default, WordPress uploads go to wp-content/uploads/. Verify this directory is accessible via HTTP from the web.
    Affected if Uploaded files can be accessed directly via a web browser, allowing execution of uploaded scripts.

A WordPress site is affected if it has Woostagram Connect plugin version 1.0.2 or lower installed with the file upload feature accessible and the upload directory web-accessible, allowing remote code execution.
