Technical Summary

The Jupiter X Core plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to limited file uploads due to missing authorization on import_popup_templates() function as well as insufficient file type validation in the upload_files() function in all versions up to, and including, 4.14.1. This makes it possible for Authenticated attackers with Subscriber-level access and above, to upload files with dangerous types that can lead to Remote Code Execution on servers configured to handle .phar files as executable PHP (e.g., Apache+mod_php), or Stored Cross-Site Scripting…

Potential Impact

Severity is HIGH (CVSS 8.8). Depending on deployment context, affected components may be exposed to unauthorized actions or data integrity risk.

Exploitability Assessment

Exploitability is assessed as Very High based on remote code execution potential, low-bar exploit prerequisites.

Primary risk drivers: remote code execution potential, low-bar exploit prerequisites

Mitigation Recommendations

Validate affected product versions, prioritize patching, and monitor references for vendor remediation guidance. If immediate patching is not possible, apply compensating controls and limit exposure of vulnerable surfaces.

Detection & Monitoring

Track authentication anomalies, unexpected file writes, and suspicious plugin API activity around affected components.

Business Impact Lens

Prioritize remediation where affected components process customer data, admin sessions, or Internet-exposed workflows.
