Description
The Business Directory Plugin – Easy Listing Directories for WordPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in all versions up to, and including, 6.4.14 via the 'ajax_listing_submit_image_upload' function due to missing validation on a user controlled key. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to add arbitrary images to listings.
