Description
The WordPress Automatic Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file uploads due to insufficient file type validation in the 'core.php' file in all versions up to, and including, 3.115.0. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Author-level access and above, to upload arbitrary files on the affected site's server which may make remote code execution possible.
