Loading vulnerability…
The FileOrganizer – Manage WordPress and Website Files plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file upload in the "fileorganizer_ajax_handler" function in all versions up to and including 1.0.9 due to missing file type validation. An authenticated attacker with Subscriber-level access or higher can exploit this issue if an administrator has granted the necessary file-manager permissions. The vulnerable upload functionality can be abused to place arbitrary files on the server, including potentially executable PHP files. The provided context notes that FileOrganizer Pro must be installed and active for Subscriber+ users to be able to upload files.

This repository contains a Python exploit script (CVE-2024-7985.py) and a README.md. The exploit targets the FileOrganizer WordPress plugin (versions <= 1.0.9) and leverages an authenticated arbitrary file upload vulnerability (CVE-2024-7985). The script automates the attack workflow: it checks the plugin version, logs in with provided credentials, extracts a security nonce, and uploads a PHP webshell (cmd.php) via the vulnerable AJAX handler. The uploaded webshell allows the attacker to execute arbitrary system commands on the server. The README provides detailed usage instructions, requirements, and an overview of the vulnerability. The main attack vector is authenticated web application access, and the script interacts with several WordPress endpoints, including login, admin, and AJAX upload handlers. The exploit is operational, requiring valid credentials and a vulnerable plugin version, and provides remote code execution capabilities to the attacker.
