CVE-2025-9693 (GCVE-0-2025-9693)

Title
User Meta – User Profile Builder and User management plugin <= 3.1.2 - Authenticated (Subscriber+) Arbitrary File Deletion
Summary
The User Meta – User Profile Builder and User management plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file deletion due to insufficient file path validation in the postInsertUserProcess function in all versions up to, and including, 3.1.2. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-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).
Severity ?
CWE
- CWE-22 - Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal')

Title
User Meta – User Profile Builder and User management plugin <= 3.1 - Insecure Direct Object Reference to Sensitive Information Exposure
Summary
The User Meta – User Profile Builder and User management plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in all versions up to, and including, 3.1 via the getUser() due to missing validation on a user controlled key. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to obtain user meta values from form fields. Please note that this requires a site administrator to create a form that displays potentially sensitive information like password hashes. This may also be exploited by unauthenticated users if the 'user-meta-public-profile' shortcode is used insecurely.
Severity ?
6.5 (Medium)
CWE
- CWE-639 - Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key
