DescriptionCVE.org

The trx_addons WordPress plugin before 2.38.5 does not correctly validate file types in one of its AJAX action, allowing unauthenticated users to upload arbitrary file. This is due to an incorrect fix of CVE-2024-13448

AnalysisAI

The trx_addons WordPress plugin before version 2.38.5 contains an arbitrary file upload vulnerability in an AJAX action that fails to properly validate file types, allowing unauthenticated attackers to upload malicious files. This vulnerability represents an incomplete remediation of the previously disclosed CVE-2024-13448, meaning the original patch was insufficient. A public proof-of-concept exploit is available, and the vulnerability can lead to remote code execution or information disclosure depending on server configuration and file placement.

Technical ContextAI

The vulnerability exists in the trx_addons WordPress plugin (CPE: cpe:2.3:a:unknown:trx_addons), which is a theme add-on package for WordPress that provides additional functionality. The root cause is improper input validation in an AJAX action endpoint, likely related to CWE-434 (Unrestricted Upload of File with Dangerous Type). Rather than implementing a whitelist-based approach to validate file extensions and MIME types, the plugin's developers attempted a fix for CVE-2024-13448 that was incomplete, leaving the file upload mechanism still vulnerable to bypass techniques such as double extensions, null-byte injection, or MIME type spoofing. The AJAX action processes file uploads without adequate server-side validation, treating user-supplied file type declarations as trustworthy.

RemediationAI

Immediately upgrade the trx_addons WordPress plugin to version 2.38.5 or later to apply the corrected file type validation. Site administrators should verify the upgrade through the WordPress plugin dashboard or via the WPScan vulnerability reference (https://wpscan.com/vulnerability/762530ae-80a5-4ff8-9725-6adab9498c33/). As a temporary workaround pending patch availability, restrict AJAX access to the vulnerable endpoints by implementing Web Application Firewall (WAF) rules that block file upload requests to the trx_addons AJAX handlers, or disable the plugin entirely if its functionality is not critical. Additionally, review upload directories (typically wp-content/uploads) for suspicious files that may have been uploaded during the exposure window and audit access logs for evidence of exploitation.
