Loading vulnerability…
The Pexels: Free Stock Photos plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file uploads due to missing file type validation in the 'pexels_fsp_images_options_validate' function in all versions up to, and including, 1.2.2. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level and above permissions, to upload arbitrary files on the affected site's server which may make remote code execution possible.

This repository contains a Python exploit script (CVE-2024-6132.py) targeting the Pexels: Free Stock Photos WordPress plugin (versions <= 1.2.2). The exploit requires valid contributor-level credentials to the target WordPress site. It authenticates to the site, extracts a required nonce, and abuses a vulnerable AJAX endpoint to upload a remote PHP shell from a user-supplied URL. If successful, the shell is placed in the standard WordPress uploads directory, granting the attacker remote code execution. The repository includes a README with usage instructions and a LICENSE file. The main exploit logic is contained in a single Python file, which is the entry point for exploitation.
