Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-01-07 12:31 – Updated: 2026-01-07 12:31

Details

The WP Enable WebP plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file uploads due to improper file type validation in the 'wpse_file_and_ext_webp' function in all versions up to, and including, 1.0. 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.

Severity ?

8.8 (High)


                  
                    CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
