Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Check for Unusual or Exceptional Conditions in the image upload process due to improper validation of the return value from the getimagesize function. An attacker can cause persistent application crashes and denial of service by uploading a malformed file with a valid image extension, which triggers a fatal error when accessed. This is only exploitable if the attacker is an authenticated user with Editor permissions.
