Administrator-level file deletion via unchecked cache path
Published Nov 13, 2025 · Updated Nov 13, 2025
Path traversal in Data Tables Generator by Supsystic 1.10.45 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to delete server files. The cleanCache() function accepts a caller-controlled path for deletion without verifying that the resolved target remains inside the plugin's cache directory. Administrator-level WordPress access is required; deleting wp-config.php can break the site and create conditions for remote code execution.
