Summary
WordPress Photo Gallery plugin is prone to multiple vulnerabilities.
Insight
Insight
The following vulnerabilities exist: - CVE-2021-24362: The plugin does not ensure that uploaded SVG files added to a gallery do not contain malicious content. As a result, users allowed to add images to gallery can upload an SVG file containing JavaScript code, which will be executed when accessing the image directly (ie in the /wp-content/uploads/photo-gallery/ folder), leading to a Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) issue. - CVE-2021-24363: The plugin does not ensure that uploaded files are kept inside its uploads folder, allowing high privilege users to put images/SVG anywhere in the filesystem via a path traversal vector.
