Until an official fix is available, restrict Subscriber-level access and above to trusted users only. Monitor for updates from the Wptobe plugin vendor and apply patches promptly once released.

Description

The Wptobe-memberships plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file deletion due to insufficient file path validation in the del_img_ajax_call() function in all versions up to, and including, 3.4.2. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, 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).
