Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions The AI Engine: Chatbots, Generators, Assistants, GPT 4 and more! plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 2.1.4

Description The issue is related to arbitrary file uploads due to missing file type validation in the add image from url function. This allows authenticated attackers with Editor access and above to upload arbitrary files on the affected site's server, potentially making remote code execution possible.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 2.1.4, update to a version that includes a fix for the missing file type validation in the add image from url function to prevent arbitrary file uploads. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the add image from url function for users with Editor access and above until a patch is available.
