    Hi
    i have a question concerning uploads with a virus. can a customer or a hacker upload a picture that has a virus? What happens to the rest of the webside if this is possible. can this upload destroy the website.

    That should not be possible if you keep all plugins and themes and WordPress up to date.
    Thanks

    Even though it is possible (but very rare) that images are infected with virus. There would be no way to execute that virus within your website. (reason why images are usually not infected)

    Thanks
