Yoast SEO Premium Remote Code Execution

As a reminder, the Wordfence Intelligence Vulnerability Database API is completely free to query and utilize, both personally and commercially, and contains all the same vulnerability data as the user interface. Please review the API documentation and Webhook documentation for more information on how to query the vulnerability API endpoints and configure webhooks utilizing all the same data present in the Wordfence Intelligence user interface.

The Yoast SEO Premium plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Remote Code Execution in all versions up to, and including, 27.6.0. This is due to insufficient validation of user supplied input before it is executed. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with author-level access and above, to execute arbitrary code on the server.
