CVE-2025-3065Network attack vector

Arbitrary file deletion via insufficient path validation

Published Apr 24, 2025 · Updated Apr 8, 2026

Path traversal in NeosLab Database Toolset 1.8.4 and earlier allows remote attackers to delete arbitrary server files without authentication. The affected function passes a request-controlled path to file deletion without restricting traversal outside its intended directory. Deleting a critical file such as wp-config.php can disable the site and create conditions for remote code execution; no account or user interaction is required.
