Subscriber-level MP4 upload via incorrect capability check
Published Nov 6, 2025 · Updated Nov 6, 2025
Missing authorization in Adenion GmbH Blog2Social 8.6.0 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to upload MP4 files through WordPress. The uploadVideo() function applies the wrong WordPress capability check, so Subscriber-level accounts can write MP4 files into the dated wp-content/uploads directory. The upload is limited to MP4 content and changes site storage; the published assessment reports no confidentiality or availability impact.
