Starter Templates <= 4.4.41 - Authenticated (Author+) Arbitrary File Upload via WXR Upload Bypass
high ✓ patched
cvss score 8.8
cwe CWE-434: Unrestricted Upload of File with Dangerous Type
published Dec 5, 2025
The Starter Templates plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file upload in all versions up to, and including, 4.4.41. This is due to insufficient file type validation detecting WXR files, allowing double extension files to bypass sanitization while being accepted as a valid WXR file. 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.

medium ✓ patched
cvss score 4.3
cwe CWE-352: Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF)
published Jan 24, 2025
The Starter Templates plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in versions up to, and including, 4.4.9. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on a function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to perform an unauthorized action via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
