CVE-2024-13720
Last modified
CVE-2024-13720 is a critical-severity vulnerability rated 9.1/10 on the CVSS scale. The WP Image Uploader plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file deletion due to insufficient file path validation in the gky_image_uploader_main_function() function in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.1. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers 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).. EPSS estimates a 0.48% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
