Unauthenticated post deletion via unchecked AJAX handler
Published Nov 22, 2025 · Updated Apr 8, 2026
Missing authorization in ThemeAtelier IDonate 2.1.14 and earlier allows remote attackers to delete arbitrary WordPress posts. The panding_blood_request_action() AJAX handler performs post deletion without checking whether the caller has the required WordPress capability. No authentication is required, and successful requests remove selected site content rather than exposing it or executing code.
