CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedThe SVG Support plugin for WordPress versions prior to 2.5.17 is vulnerable due to inadequate sanitization of .svgz files, which can be uploaded by users with SVG upload permissions. This flaw allows attackers to upload malicious scripts that execute in the browsers of users who view the files, potentially impacting administrators and other users. WordPress site administrators and security teams should prioritize updating the plugin to mitigate this risk.
Original NVD Description
The SVG Support WordPress plugin before 2.5.17 does not apply its SVG sanitisation to uploaded files using the .svgz extension, even though it registers and serves them as SVG, allowing a user permitted to upload SVGs (such as an Author once granted upload access) to store a script-bearing file that executes in the browser of anyone who later views it, including an administrator.
