CVE-2025-5927
The Everest Forms (Pro) plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file deletion due to insufficient file path validation in the delete_entry_files() function in all versions up to, and including, 1.9.4. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers 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). The vulnerability requires an admin to trigger the deletion via deletion of a form entry and cannot be carried out by the attacker alone.
CVSS
- Versión: 3.1
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
- Puntuación base: 7.5
Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)
- Probabilidad de explotación en los próximos 30 días: 0.68%
- Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 51
- Fecha de la puntuación: 6/10/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, de FIRST) estima la probabilidad de que una vulnerabilidad sea explotada en 30 días. Complementa a CVSS (impacto) y a CISA KEV (explotación confirmada).
🎯 Técnicas ATT&CK
Cómo se explota esta vulnerabilidad y qué consigue el atacante, en el lenguaje de MITRE ATT&CK.
- Explotación
T1203Exploitation for Client Executionexecution85 % - Impacto principal
T1565.001Stored Data Manipulationimpact90 % - Impacto secundario
T1059Command and Scripting Interpreterexecution75 %
UI:R (requiere que admin elimine entrada) → T1203. Eliminación arbitraria de archivos (CWE-36, path traversal) → T1565.001 (corrupción/eliminación de datos). Riesgo de RCE si se elimina wp-config.php → T1059 como impacto secundario.
Inferido por nuestro agente de análisis a partir de la descripción oficial, el vector CVSS y la CWE, y comprobado por un supervisor. Puede contener errores.

"value": "El complemento Everest Forms (Pro) para WordPress es vulnerable a la eliminación arbitraria de archivos debido a una validación insuficiente de la ruta de archivo en la función delete_entry_files() en todas las versiones hasta la 1.9.4 incluida. Esto permite a atacantes no autenticados eliminar archivos arbitrarios en el servidor, lo que puede provocar fácilmente la ejecución remota de código al eliminar el archivo correcto (como wp-config.php). La vulnerabilidad requiere que un administrador active la eliminación mediante la eliminación de una entrada del formulario y no puede ser realizada por el atacante solo."
