Vulnerability Overview

The WPBot Pro Wordpress Chatbot plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file deletion due to insufficient file path validation in the qcld_openai_delete_training_file() function in all versions up to, and including, 13.6.2. 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 right file is deleted (such as wp-config.php).

Technical Analysis

REMEDIATION: Update to version 13.7.0, or a newer patched version --- IDENTIFIER: CWE-73 (External Control of File Name or Path) The product allows user input to control or influence paths or file names that are used in filesystem operations.
