CVE-2026-3335: Canto <= 3.1.1 - Missing Authorization to Unauthenticated File Upload

id: CVE-2026-3335

info:
  name: Canto <= 3.1.1 - Missing Authorization to Unauthenticated File Upload
  author: iamatownboy
  severity: medium
  description: |
    The Canto plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to missing authorization in the copy-media.php upload flow.
    The file is directly accessible and accepts attacker-controlled parameters for the upload destination, allowing unauthenticated users to upload arbitrary files constrained to WordPress-allowed MIME types.
    The fbc_app_api parameter controls the domain WordPress fetches from via wp_safe_remote_get, enabling SSRF to attacker-controlled infrastructure.
  impact: |
    Unauthenticated attackers can upload files into the WordPress media library by pointing the server-side fetch at an attacker-controlled Canto API. This also enables SSRF via the fbc_app_api parameter.
  remediation: |
    Update Canto to version 3.1.2 or later.
