Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Customer Reviews for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 5.38.9

Description The issue arises from missing file type validation in the ivole import upload csv AJAX action, allowing authenticated attackers with author-level access and above to upload arbitrary files on the affected site's server. This could potentially lead to remote code execution.
