Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2021-24311 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Unknown External Media. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-24311/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-24311/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-24311","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-24311/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-24311","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-hmcx-73wq-2qf4"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Authenticated users can upload arbitrary files via the External Media WordPress plugin, potentially leading to remote code execution.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"file_upload"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[{"product":"external_media","vendor":"external_media_project"}],"cvss":{"score":8.8,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-434","name":"Unrestricted Upload of File with Dangerous Type"}],"description":"The wp_ajax_upload-remote-file AJAX action of the External Media WordPress plugin before 1.0.34 was vulnerable to arbitrary file uploads via any authenticated users.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"External Media \u003c 1.0.34 - Authenticated Arbitrary File Upload","id":"CVE-2021-24311","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"file_upload","year":"2021"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"WP Super Cache \u003c 1.7.3 - Authenticated Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2021-24312"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Photo Gallery \u003c 1.5.67 - Authenticated Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Gallery Title","id":"CVE-2021-24310"},"products":["External Media"],"published":"2021-06-01","related":[{"cvss_score":4.8,"headline":"External Media \u003c 1.0.36 - Admin+ Stored XSS","id":"CVE-2022-3832","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-12-19"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-03","vendors":["Unknown"]},"summary":"Authenticated users can upload arbitrary files via the External Media WordPress plugin, potentially leading to remote code execution.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-24311/"}
