Recommendation: Monitor — no exploitation signal at the moment.

The Newsup theme for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized plugin installation due to a missing capability check on the newsup_admin_info_install_plugin() function in all versions up to, and including, 5.0.10. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to install the ansar-import plugin.
