## What is CVE-2024-11010?

CVE-2024-11010 is a high-severity path traversal vulnerability in softaculous FileOrganizer – WordPress File Manager, published on 7 Dec 2024. An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.

### Official description

The FileOrganizer – Manage WordPress and Website Files plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Local JavaScript File Inclusion in all versions up to, and including, 1.1.4 via the 'default_lang' parameter. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Administrator-level access and above, to include and execute arbitrary JavaScript files on the server, allowing the execution of any JavaScript code in those files. This can be used to bypass access controls, obtain sensitive data, or achieve code execution in cases where images and other “safe” file types can be uploaded and included.

Weakness: CWE-22 (Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory)
