CRITICAL 9.8

DescriptionCVE.org

The WPBookit plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file uploads due to missing file type validation in the image_upload_handle() function hooked via the 'add_booking_type' route in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.4. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to upload arbitrary files on the affected site's server which may make remote code execution possible.

AnalysisAI

The WPBookit WordPress plugin (versions ≤1.0.4) contains a critical arbitrary file upload vulnerability in the image_upload_handle() function due to missing file type validation, allowing unauthenticated attackers to upload malicious files and potentially achieve remote code execution. With a CVSS score of 9.8, network-accessible attack vector, and no authentication requirement, this vulnerability poses an immediate and severe threat to any WordPress installation using the affected plugin.

Technical ContextAI

The vulnerability exists in the WPBookit plugin's image_upload_handle() function, which is hooked to the 'add_booking_type' route. The root cause is CWE-434 (Unrestricted Upload of File with Dangerous Type), indicating the application fails to properly validate uploaded file extensions, MIME types, or content before storing them on the server filesystem. WordPress plugins typically handle file uploads through AJAX or direct POST requests; in this case, the add_booking_type route processes image uploads without sufficient validation checks. An attacker can exploit this by sending a malicious file (e.g., PHP, JSP, or other executable format) disguised or directly as an image file, which the server will accept and store in a web-accessible directory, enabling subsequent execution.

RemediationAI

Immediate actions: (1) Update WPBookit plugin to version 1.0.5 or later (vendor should have released a patched version addressing file type validation); (2) If immediate patching is not possible, disable or remove the WPBookit plugin entirely until patched; (3) If the plugin must remain active, implement file upload restrictions via web server configuration (e.g., .htaccess rules preventing PHP execution in upload directories, or nginx location blocks); (4) Audit server logs and file uploads for suspicious files uploaded after plugin installation; (5) Run malware scans on the WordPress installation and uploaded files directory. Check the official WPBookit documentation and WordPress.org plugin page for available security updates and vendor advisories.
