Visualizer < 4.0.6 - Contributor+ Arbitrary Chart Deletion via deleteChart

Description

The plugin does not properly authorise chart-deletion requests, performing only a site-wide capability check with no per-object ownership verification, allowing users with the Contributor role and above to permanently delete any chart on the site, including charts created by other users such as administrators.
