Path Traversal in WPFunnels (WordPress plugin) (CVE-2025-12000)
Summary
Path traversal in WPFunnels (WordPress plugin) (CVE-2025-12000). Data can be tampered with by attackers.
Original description
The description as published by the source.
The WPFunnels plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file deletion due to insufficient file path validation in the wpfnl_delete_log() function in all versions up to, and including, 3.6.2. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Administrator-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).
