Remote unauthenticated file upload (AV:N/PR:N/UI:N) yielding RCE (C/I/A:H), but the default-disabled PDF Generator prerequisite is a non-default condition warranting AC:H rather than AC:L.

The Ultra Addons for Contact Form 7 plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Arbitrary File Upload due to insufficient file type validation in the 'uacf7_wpcf7_mail_components' function in all versions up to, and including, 3.5.50. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to upload arbitrary files on the affected site's server which may make remote code execution possible. Note: This is only exploitable when the plugin's PDF Generator module is enabled, which is disabled by default.

AnalysisAI
Unauthenticated arbitrary file upload in the WordPress plugin Ultra Addons for Contact Form 7 (themefic) affects every version up to and including 3.5.50, allowing a remote attacker to place arbitrary files - including executable PHP - on the web server because the 'uacf7_wpcf7_mail_components' handler performs insufficient file-type validation. Successful exploitation requires the plugin's PDF Generator module to be explicitly enabled; that module is off by default, so default installations are not vulnerable, and RCE further depends on the uploaded file landing in a web-executable path. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires the plugin's PDF Generator module to be explicitly enabled - it is disabled by default, so default installations are NOT vulnerable. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | Vendor/NVD CVSS 3.1 rates this 9.8 Critical with a fully remote, unauthenticated, low-complexity vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N) and C:H/I:H/A:H, consistent with an unauthenticated arbitrary file upload (CWE-434) that can lead to RCE on a WordPress host. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in. |
| Remediation | No vendor-released patched version is independently confirmed in the available data; the upstream fix appears as a plugin repository changeset (https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/3698232/ultimate-addons-for-contact-form-7), so treat any release published after 3.5.50 as the candidate fix, verify it against that changeset, and update the plugin once Wordfence's advisory at https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/id/872e1a05-aacc-44fa-93c1-8c3f7b2fb46d?source=cve lists a fixed version. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours, inventory every WordPress installation running Ultra Addons for Contact Form 7 at version 3.5.50 or below and determine whether the PDF Generator module is enabled; for any instance where it is enabled (or where the module state cannot be confirmed), disable the module or deactivate and remove the plugin outright, and where removal is not immediately possible, deploy WAF or reverse-proxy rules that block POST requests to the uacf7_wpcf7_mail_components handler and deny execution of PHP files in upload directories. …
