Until an official fix is available, restrict administrative access to trusted users only and monitor for suspicious deletion activity. Avoid deleting submissions via the vulnerable interface if possible. Follow up with the vendor for updates on patches or official mitigations.
Description
The Extensions For CF7 (Contact form 7 Database, Conditional Fields and Redirection) plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file deletion due to insufficient file path validation in the 'delete-file' field in all versions up to, and including, 3.2.8. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to delete arbitrary files on the server, when an administrator deletes the submission, which can easily lead to remote code execution when the right file is deleted (such as wp-config.php).
