WishList Member X < 3.26.7 - Authenticated (Subscriber+) Arbitrary File Deletion

Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal')
CVE CVE-2024-37108
CVSS High (8.1)
Publicly Published June 20, 2024
Last Updated February 26, 2026
Researcher Dave Jong
Description

The Wishlist Member plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file deletion due to insufficient file path validation in all versions up to, and excluding, 3.26.7. 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 write file is deleted (such as wp-config.php).
