High CVSS 7.2
CVE-2026-1771
The MapSVG plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file uploads due to missing file type validation in the SVGFile constructor in all versions up to, and including, 8.14.0 This is due to an incorrect conditional check that prevents file validation from taking place. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Administrator-level access and above, to upload arbitrary files on the affected site's server which may make remote code execution possible.
What this means
- Exposure
- Exploitable remotely over the network, with a privileged account and with no action from the victim.
- Impact
- An attacker can read sensitive data, modify or destroy data and take the service offline.
- Weakness
- The application accepts input without checking it, opening the door to unintended behaviour.
- Likelihood
- Its EPSS score puts short-term exploitation in a middle band: neither negligible nor imminent.
