Wordpress Vulnerable plugin Reflex Gallery - CVE-2015-4133

The WordPress Plugin ReFlex Gallery vulnerability was an arbitrary file upload issue that existed in some versions of the plugin. This means an attacker could upload malicious files onto a WordPress site using the plugin's functionality.
Here's how it worked:
Flawed File Upload: The plugin lacked proper validation for user-uploaded files. Attackers could exploit this by uploading a file that appeared harmless (like an image) but contained malicious code.
Remote Code Execution (RCE): Due to the vulnerability, the uploaded malicious file could potentially be executed on the server. This would allow the attacker to take control of the website or server.
Impact of the Vulnerability:
Taking Over Websites: By exploiting the vulnerability, attackers could gain unauthorized access to the website and potentially inject malicious code, redirect visitors to phishing sites, or deface the website.
Spreading Malware: Malicious code uploaded through the vulnerability could also be used to spread malware to visitors of the compromised website.
The vulnerability was patched in versions later than:
3.1.3 (according to some sources)
1.4.6 (according to other sources)
It's important to note that:
This vulnerability was specific to older versions of the ReFlex Gallery plugin.
Using a patched and updated version of the plugin is crucial to ensure security.
It's generally recommended to avoid using outdated plugins as they may have known security risks.
