Summary

The 'Personal QR Message' WordPress plugin through version 1.0 does not restrict the file types that can be uploaded through an unauthenticated handler, allowing unauthenticated users to upload arbitrary executable PHP files that are directly reachable, leading to remote code execution.

Risk Assessment

An unauthenticated attacker can upload a malicious PHP file and achieve remote code execution on the server, potentially leading to full site takeover.

Recommendation

Immediately remove or replace the plugin with a more secure solution, as no patch is available.
