No known patch is available for this vulnerability.
The affected plugin has been removed from the WordPress.org directory (reason: Security Issue), and no patched version is being distributed through the official directory. If you have the affected software installed, you should uninstall or replace it rather than wait for an update.
Description
The AP Background plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file uploads due to missing authorization and insufficient file validation within the advParallaxBackAdminSaveSlider() handler in versions 3.8.1 to 3.8.2. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to upload arbitrary files on the affected site's server which may make remote code execution possible.
