WordPress · Safe-Svg · CVE-2022-1091
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Safe SVG WordPress plugin versions prior to 1.9.10
**Description**
The sanitisation step of the Safe SVG WordPress plugin can be bypassed by spoofing the `content-type` in the POST request to upload a file, allowing an attacker to perform attacks that the plugin should prevent, mainly XSS, but potentially other XML attacks depending on further use of uploaded SVG files.
**Recommendations**
For versions prior to 1.9.10, update to version 1.9.10 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the upload of SVG files or disabling the plugin until a patch is available. Avoid using the vulnerable plugin to upload SVG files until the issue is resolved.
