Summary

The WordPress plugin All in One SEO Pack is prone to a remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability.

Insight

Insight

The All in One SEO - Best WordPress SEO Plugin enables authenticated users with 'aioseo_tools_settings' privilege (most of the time admin) to execute arbitrary code on the underlying host. Users can restore plugin's configuration by uploading a backup .ini file in the section 'Tool > Import/Export'. However, the plugin attempts to unserialize values of the .ini file. Moreover, the plugin embeds Monolog library which can be used to craft a gadget chain and thus trigger system command execution.

Affected Software

Affected Software

WordPress All in One SEO Pack plugin prior to version 4.1.0.2.

Solution

Solution

Update to version 4.1.0.2 or later.
