CVE-2024-35767Network attack vector

Administrator-level code execution via unchecked file upload

Published Jun 21, 2024 · Updated Apr 28, 2026

Arbitrary file upload in Bogdan Bendziukov Squeeze 1.4 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to write executable files. The plugin's upload handling accepts administrator-supplied files without validating their type, permitting dangerous extensions to reach the WordPress server. Administrator-level access is required; a successfully uploaded server-executable file can run code in the web-server process.
