shell startup will not work however the vulnerability will still be exploitable.

This is a post authentication shell upload vulnerability in a popular (400k+ downloads)
wordpress plugin. By default only admins can reach the vulnerability.

The plugin does allow for administrators to give any class of user the ability to
interact with the vulnerable functionality, though they would have to do so deliberately.
