Until a fix is available, restrict subscriber-level user capabilities where possible and monitor for suspicious file uploads. Consider disabling or limiting the use of the send_feedback function if feasible. Follow vendor guidance once available.

Description

The BuddyBoss App plugin for WordPress contains an arbitrary file upload vulnerability in all versions up to and including 3.2.1. This flaw arises from insufficient server-side validation of uploaded files, relying only on the client-supplied Content-Type header. Authenticated users with subscriber-level access or higher can exploit this to upload potentially executable files, enabling remote code execution. Uploaded files are typically deleted after email transmission, but a race condition during SMTP execution allows access to these files. Additionally, files persist indefinitely if the wp_mail() function fails.
