Users should monitor the vendor's advisories for updates. Until a fix is available, restrict custom-level and higher user access to trusted individuals only to reduce risk.
Description
The FluentCart WordPress plugin up to version 1.6.2 contains a path traversal vulnerability in its deleteFile function. Authenticated users with custom-level access or higher can exploit this flaw to delete arbitrary files on the server. This can lead to severe consequences such as remote code execution if critical files like wp-config.php are deleted.
