Unauthenticated file deletion via unvalidated paths
Published Nov 1, 2024 · Updated Apr 28, 2026
Missing authorization in Contact Form 7 Campaign Monitor Extension 0.4.67 and earlier allows remote attackers to delete server files. A remotely reachable function accepts a file path without sufficient validation, but the publisher has not disclosed the function or request parameter. No authentication or user interaction is required; code execution requires deletion of a security-critical file.
