Last modified
CVE-2024-6828 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 7.2/10 on the CVSS scale. The Redux Framework plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthenticated JSON file uploads due to missing authorization and capability checks on the Redux_Color_Scheme_Import function in versions 4.4.12 to 4.4.17. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to upload JSON files, which can be used to conduct stored cross-site scripting attacks and, in some rare cases, when the wp_filesystem fails to initialize - to Remote Code Execution.. EPSS estimates a 1.03% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
