CVE-2024-5637Network attack vector

Subscriber-level arbitrary file deletion via path traversal

Published Jun 7, 2024 · Updated Apr 8, 2026

Path traversal in Market Exporter 2.0.19 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to delete arbitrary server files. The remove_files function applies a requested file path to deletion without a capability check or restriction to an intended directory. Subscriber-level access is sufficient, and deletion of files writable by the server process can cause data loss or interrupt the WordPress site.
