Authenticated arbitrary file upload via ajaxUploadFonts
Published Dec 15, 2023 · Updated Apr 8, 2026
Unrestricted file upload in G5Theme Essential Real Estate 4.3.5 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to write files to the server. The ajaxUploadFonts function accepts uploaded font files without adequately validating their types, allowing dangerous files into the site's upload path. Subscriber-level access is required; a successfully placed executable server-side file enables code execution under the web server account.
