info:
  name: InstaWP Connect <= 0.1.0.22 - Unauthenticated Arbitrary File Upload
  author: DhiyaneshDK
  severity: critical
  description: |
    The InstaWP Connect – 1-click WP Staging & Migration plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file uploads due to  insufficient file validation in the /wp-json/instawp-connect/v1/config REST API endpoint in all versions up to, and including, 0.1.0.22. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to upload arbitrary files.
  impact: |
    Unauthenticated attackers can install and activate arbitrary WordPress plugins including vulnerable or malicious ones via the InstaWP Connect REST API endpoint.
  remediation: |
    Update InstaWP Connect plugin to version 0.1.0.23 or later.
