CVE-2025-6691Network attack vector

Arbitrary file deletion via unvalidated upload paths

Published Jul 9, 2025 · Updated Jul 9, 2025

Arbitrary file deletion in Brainstorm Force SureForms through 1.7.3 allows remote attackers to cause server-file deletion via a crafted form submission. The delete_entry_files() routine uses the submission's stored upload path for deletion without restricting it to the SureForms upload directory. Exploitation requires an administrator to delete the attacker's submitted entry; deleting a critical file can disable the site or enable code execution.
