Vulnerability Overview

The Nexter Blocks – Gutenberg Blocks, Page Builder & AI Website Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Directory Traversal in all versions up to, and including, 5.0.0 via the 'plus_name' parameter. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to delete arbitrary JS/CSS files on the server, which can lead to denial of service or destruction of critical plugin and theme assets.

Technical Analysis

REMEDIATION: Update to version 5.0.1, or a newer patched version --- IDENTIFIER: CWE-22 (Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal')) The product uses external input to construct a pathname that is intended to identify a file or directory that is located underneath a restricted parent directory, but the product does not properly neutralize special elements within the pathname that can cause the pathname to resolve to a location that is outside of the restricted directory.
