Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2025-07-15 12:15 - Updated: 2025-07-15 13:14
Severity ?
8.1 (High) - CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:H
Summary
The Restrict File Access plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 1.1.2. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the 'restrict-file-access' page. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to 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), via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.

Esto se debe a la falta o la validaci\u00f3n incorrecta de nonce en la p\u00e1gina \"restrict-file-access\". Esto permite a atacantes no autenticados eliminar archivos arbitrarios en el servidor, lo que puede provocar f\u00e1cilmente la ejecuci\u00f3n remota de c\u00f3digo al eliminar el archivo correcto (como wp-config.php).
