Input validation vulnerability in Prevent files / folders access 2.5.1

The Prevent files/folders access plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to a security issue in versions up to and including 2.5.1. This means that users with administrator-level access can upload files to the affected site’s server which could potentially allow remote code execution. This is due to the fact that the plugin does not validate the type of file that is being uploaded.
