CVE-2024-12544 Information

Description

The SurveyJS: Drag & Drop WordPress Form Builder to create style and embed multiple forms of any complexity plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file deletion due to a missing capability check on the callback function of the SurveyJS_DeleteFile class in all versions up to and including 1.12.17. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with Subscriber-level access and above to delete arbitrary files on the server which can easily lead to remote code execution when the right file is deleted (such as wp-config.php). This function is still vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery as of 1.12.20.
