Unauthenticated arbitrary file upload via unchecked avatars
Published Nov 23, 2024 · Updated Apr 8, 2026
Arbitrary file upload in Dasinfomedia WPGYM 67.1.0 and earlier allows remote attackers to place dangerous files on the server. The MJ_gmgt_user_avatar_image_upload() function accepts avatar content without validating its file type before saving it. No authentication is required; code execution follows only when the web server processes an uploaded file as executable content.
