Authenticated file read and move via unchecked paths
Published Sep 11, 2024 · Updated Apr 8, 2026
Improper path validation in WP Delicious 1.6.9 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to read or move arbitrary server files. The save_edit_profile_details() function fails to validate a supplied file path before reading and moving the referenced server file. Subscriber-level access is sufficient; disclosure can expose configuration secrets, while moving a critical file can enable code execution.
