# Impact :
***********
WordPress Custom-BackGround Plugins 3.0 is prone to a vulnerability that lets attackers 
upload arbitrary files because it fails to adequately sanitize user-supplied input. 

An attacker can exploit this vulnerability to upload arbitrary code and execute
it in the context of the webserver process. This may facilitate unauthorized access 
or privilege escalation; other attacks are also possible.

CWE-352: Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF)
******************************************
The web application does not, or can not, sufficiently verify whether a well-formed, 
valid, consistent request was intentionally provided by the user who submitted the request.

When a web server is designed to receive a request from a client without any mechanism 
for verifying that it was intentionally sent, then it might be possible for an attacker to trick a 
client into making an unintentional request to the web server which will be treated as an 
authentic request. This can be done via a URL, image load, XMLHttpRequest, etc. and 
can result in exposure of data or unintended code execution.

CWE-264: Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls
**************************************************
Weaknesses in this category are related to the management of permissions, privileges, and 
other security features that are used to perform access control.

CWE-434: Unrestricted Upload of File with Dangerous Type
****************************************************
The software allows the attacker to upload or transfer files of dangerous types that can 
be automatically processed within the product's environment.
