Summary

CVE-2023-4827 is a vulnerability affecting the File Manager Pro WordPress plugin before version 1.8. The issue stems from insufficient validation of the CSRF nonce in the `fs_connector` AJAX action. This creates an opportunity for attackers to execute unwanted file system actions on highly privileged WordPress sites. They can do this by launching CSRF attacks using GET requests, and potentially uploading a web shell without the user's knowledge or consent.
