CVE-2020-24948
The Autoptimize WordPress plugin prior to version 2.7.7 contains a vulnerability in the ao_ccss_import AJAX function that fails to validate whether uploaded files are genuine Zip archives. This lack of validation allows administrators and other high-privilege users to upload malicious files, including PHP scripts, which can be executed on the server to achieve remote code execution.
