Description
The Verge3D Publishing and E-Commerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file uploads due to missing file type validation in the 'v3d_upload_app_file' function in all versions up to, and including, 4.5.2. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber access and above, to upload arbitrary files on the affected site's server which may make remote code execution possible. CVE-2023-51420 may be a duplicate of this issue.
