Until an official fix is released, restrict user roles to trusted individuals only and monitor for suspicious activity related to file deletion. Avoid granting Subscriber-level or higher access to untrusted users. Review and harden file permissions on the server to limit the impact of potential file deletions.
Description
The Market Exporter plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized loss of data due to a missing capability check on the 'remove_files' function in all versions up to, and including, 2.0.19. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to use path traversal to delete arbitrary files on the server.
