WordPress · Upload Media By Url · CVE-2023-3720
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Upload Media By URL WordPress plugin versions prior to 1.0.8
**Description**
The issue is related to the lack of a CSRF check when uploading files, which could allow attackers to make logged-in admins upload files on their behalf, including HTML containing JS code for users with the unfiltered html capability.
**Recommendations**
For versions prior to 1.0.8, update to version 1.0.8 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the `unfiltered html` capability to minimize the risk of exploitation. Restrict access to file upload functionality to prevent unauthorized uploads until the issue is resolved.
