The Wiguard – CCTV & Security WordPress Theme for Surveillance Companies theme for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file uploads due to missing file type validation in all versions up to 2.0.1 (exclusive). This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to upload arbitrary files on the affected site's server which may make remote code execution possible.

Not sure which version you run? Run a passive check — it reads public files only.

Remediation & mitigations

Update to version 2.0.1, or a newer patched version
Rotate administrator passwords and application secrets if the site ran a vulnerable version while publicly reachable.
