Home page URL: Security reports for File Manager Pro – Filester
Application: File Manager Pro – Filester
Date: Oct 17, 2023
Research Description: The File Manager Pro WordPress plugin before 1.8.1 allows admin users to upload arbitrary files, even in environments where such a user should not be able to gain full control of the server, such as a multisite installation. This leads to remote code execution.

CVE, Research URL: CVE-2024-7031
Home page URL: Security reports for File Manager Pro – Filester
Application: File Manager Pro – Filester
Date: Aug 03, 2024
Research Description: The File Manager Pro – Filester plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the 'njt_fs_saveSettingRestrictions' function in all versions up to, and including, 1.8.2.

Affected versions: Min -, max -.
Status: vulnerable

CVE, Research URL: CVE-2024-9669
Home page URL: Security reports for File Manager Pro – Filester
Application: File Manager Pro – Filester
Date: Nov 28, 2024
Research Description: The File Manager Pro – Filester plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Local JavaScript File Inclusion in all versions up to, and including, 1.8.5 via the 'fm_locale' parameter. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Administrator-level access and above, to include and execute arbitrary files on the server, allowing the execution of any PHP 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. The vulnerability was partially patched in version 1.8.5.
Affected versions: Min -, max -.
Status: vulnerable

Home page URL: Security reports for File Manager Pro – Filester
Application: File Manager Pro – Filester
Date: Nov 28, 2024
Research Description: The File Manager Pro – Filester plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file uploads due to missing validation in the 'fsConnector' function in all versions up to, and including, 1.8.6. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, and granted permissions by an Administrator, to upload a new .htaccess file allowing them to subsequently upload arbitrary files on the affected site's server which may make remote code execution possible.
Affected versions: Min -, max -.
Status: vulnerable

Application: File Manager Pro – Filester
Date: Dec 19, 2024
Research Description: The File Manager Pro – Filester plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the 'ajax_install_plugin' function in all versions up to, and including, 1.8.6. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to install the Filebird plugin.
Affected versions: Min -, max -.
Status: vulnerable

Jun 14, 2025

CVE, Research URL: CVE-2025-3234
Home page URL: Security reports for File Manager Pro – Filester
Application: File Manager Pro – Filester
Date: Jun 14, 2025
Research Description: The File Manager Pro – Filester plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file uploads due to missing file type validation in all versions up to, and including, 1.8.8. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Administrator-level access and above, to upload arbitrary files on the affected site's server which may make remote code execution possible. Administrators have the ability to extend file manager usage privileges to lower-level users including subscribers, which would make this vulnerability more severe on such sites.
Affected versions: Min -, max -.
Status: vulnerable
