WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities

Backuply < 1.4.9 - Admin+ Arbitrary File Deletion

Description

The plugin is vulnerable to arbitrary file deletion due to insufficient file path validation in the delete backup functionality. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Administrator-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).

Affects Plugins

Fixed in 1.4.9
