This makes it possible for an attacker to create and or modify files hosted on the server which can easily grant attackers backdoor access to the affected server. CVE record

It also requires that the attacker is successful in uploading a file with the serialized payload. CVE record

What to do if you run ImageMagick Engine

If you run ImageMagick Engine, open WordPress and check the installed version in Plugins. Compare it with the affected versions in the vulnerability record. If a fixed version is available, take a current backup and update to that version or the latest supported release.

If no fixed version exists, consider disabling and removing the plugin or replacing it with a maintained alternative. After dealing with the affected software, check administrator users, unexpected file changes, redirects, unfamiliar pages and security logs for signs that the site may already have been altered.
