WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities
Frontend File Manager Plugin <= 23.6 - Author+ Arbitrary Post Deletion
Description
The plugin does not properly verify ownership of every targeted post before permanent deletion, allowing authenticated users with author-level access and above to permanently delete arbitrary posts and pages. When the plugin's "Allow guest uploads" setting is enabled by an administrator, the same deletion primitive becomes reachable by unauthenticated users.
