CVE-2024-13720

HIGH

WP Image Uploader <= 1.0.1 - Unauthenticated Arbitrary File Deletion via gky_image_uploader_main_function

Title source: llm
STIX 2.1

Description

The WP Image Uploader plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file deletion due to insufficient file path validation in the gky_image_uploader_main_function() function in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.1. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to delete arbitrary files on the server, which can easily lead to remote code execution when the right file is deleted (such as wp-config.php).
