Summary

The Rank Math SEO WordPress plugin before 1.0.280 does not correctly validate the type of a file uploaded through its settings import feature, allowing users with administrator-level access to upload a PHP file and achieve remote code execution.

Risk Assessment

An administrator can exploit this flaw to execute arbitrary PHP code on the server, leading to full site compromise. If an administrator account is taken over, an attacker could install backdoors, steal data, or damage the system.

Recommendation

Update the Rank Math SEO plugin to version 1.0.280 or later. Additionally, restrict administrator privileges to the minimum necessary and regularly review settings import logs.
