          The WordPress Front-end Editor plugin contains an authenticated file upload
          vulnerability. An attacker can upload arbitrary files to the upload folder because
          the plugin uses its own file upload mechanism instead of the WordPress API, which
          incorrectly allows uploads of any file type.
