CVE-2026-4350

Estado: AplazadaAlta (8.1)—

The Perfmatters plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file deletion via path traversal in all versions up to, and including, 2.5.9.1. This is due to the `PMCS::action_handler()` method processing the `$_GET['delete']` parameter without any sanitization, authorization check, or nonce verification. The unsanitized filename is concatenated with the storage directory path and passed to `unlink()`. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to delete arbitrary files on the server by using `../` path traversal sequences, including `wp-config.php` which would force WordPress into the installation wizard and allow full site takeover.

CVSS

Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)

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.

Acceso remoto autenticado (PR:L) sin interacción; borrado arbitrario de archivos via path traversal (CWE-22) permite destruir wp-config.php e impedir funcionamiento (I:H) o escalar a root. Requiere red y privilegios, no es explotación ciega de aplicación.

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.

Esto se debe a que el método 'PMCS::action_handler()' procesa el parámetro '$_GET['delete']' sin ninguna sanitización, verificación de autorización o verificación de nonce. El nombre de archivo no sanitizado se concatena con la ruta del directorio de almacenamiento y se pasa a 'unlink()'. Esto hace posible que atacantes autenticados, con acceso de nivel Suscriptor y superior, eliminen archivos arbitrarios en el servidor utilizando secuencias de salto de ruta ' ../ ', incluyendo 'wp-config.php', lo que forzaría a WordPress al asistente de instalación y permitiría una toma de control completa del sitio."
