CVE-2026-12514: Unknown Shared-Files-Pro

Medium severity, CVSS 5.3. EPSS: 0.2% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

The Shared Files WordPress plugin before 1.7.67, shared-files-pro WordPress plugin before 1.7.70 do not perform a capability check in their file-upload handler, which is registered for unauthenticated users and protected only by a nonce that is output on public pages, so an unauthenticated visitor can upload files to a publicly accessible directory and read the server's absolute path from the response. Uploads are limited to WordPress's allowed MIME types, so executable PHP cannot be uploaded.

Affected products

• Unknown Shared-Files-Pro: before 1.7.70 (fixed in 1.7.70)
• Unknown Shared Files: before 1.7.67 (fixed in 1.7.67)
