Advisory
Source description from Wordfence Intelligence, credited to Dmitrii Ignatyev.
The Insert or Embed Articulate Content into WordPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file uploads through insecure file uploads in a zip archive in all versions up to, and including, 4.3000000023. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to upload zip files containing phar files on the affected site's server which may make remote code execution possible. CVE-2024-0757 is likely a duplicate of this issue.
