Subscriber Arbitrary File Deletion in WP User Frontend <= 4.3.11 versions.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability (CWE-22) in WP User Frontend (<= 4.3.11) allows authenticated subscribers to perform arbitrary file deletion via improper limitation of pathname to a restricted directory. The issue arises from insufficient validation of file paths, enabling path traversal attacks that can delete files outside intended directories. The CVSS 3.1 vector indicates network attack vector, low attack complexity, requiring low privileges (subscriber level), no user interaction, and impacts availability only.
Potential Impact
An attacker with subscriber-level access can delete arbitrary files on the server, potentially causing denial of service or disruption of the website or application functionality. There is no impact on confidentiality or integrity according to the CVSS vector.
Mitigation Recommendations
No patch or official fix information is provided in the available data. Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until a fix is available, restrict subscriber permissions where possible and monitor for suspicious file deletion activities.
