Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: AIT CSV import/export plugin for WordPress versions up to and including 3.0.3

Description: The AIT CSV import/export plugin for WordPress is susceptible to arbitrary file uploads due to a lack of file type validation in the /wp-content/plugins/ait-csv-import-export/admin/upload-handler.php file.
