Summary

The Zarinpal Paid Download WordPress plugin version 2.3 and earlier is susceptible to a file upload vulnerability, which permits users with high privileges, such as administrators, to upload arbitrary files to the server. This occurs even in a multisite configuration where such actions should be restricted. The lack of adequate validation for uploaded files means that malicious files could potentially be uploaded, posing serious security risks to the affected WordPress installations.

Affected Version(s)

Zarinpal Paid Download 0 <= 2.3

Exploit Proof of Concept (PoC)

PoC code is written by security researchers to demonstrate the vulnerability can be exploited. PoC code is also a key component for weaponization which could lead to ransomware.
