CVE-2024-8480
Last modified
CVE-2024-8480 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 8.8/10 on the CVSS scale. The Image Optimizer, Resizer and CDN – Sirv plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the 'sirv_save_prevented_sizes' function in all versions up to, and including, 7.2.7. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to exploit the 'sirv_upload_file_by_chunks_callback' function, which lacks proper file type validation, allowing attackers to upload arbitrary files on the affected site's server which may make remote code execution possible.. EPSS estimates a 0.85% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
