4th percentile - higher than 4% of all known CVEs

Summary

The CODE MONKEYS PROPOSALS WordPress plugin through 1.0.1 does not validate a user-supplied file path before deleting a file, and does not check the capability of the user making the request, allowing any authenticated user, such as a subscriber, to delete arbitrary files on the server, which can lead to a site takeover.

Risk Assessment

Even a user with the lowest privileges can delete arbitrary files on the server. This can lead to data destruction, site unavailability and full site takeover.

Recommendation

Update the CODE MONKEYS PROPOSALS plugin to a version newer than 1.0.1 as soon as it is available, or temporarily disable it. Verify server file integrity and perform a backup.
