Description
The User Meta plugin for wordPress is vulnerable to Arbitrary File Uploads in versions up to, and including 1.1.1, due to insufficient file type validation in the user-meta/framework/helper/uploader.php file. This makes it possible for attackers to upload malicious files and achieve remote code execution.
