## Technical details

The plugin fails to properly validate user-controllable directory paths before performing file deletion operations, enabling a classic path traversal attack (CWE-73). An unauthenticated attacker can craft requests to delete files outside the intended directory, including system files in the WordPress root directory such as index.php and .htaccess. The attack requires the site to have a non-default form configuration. The vulnerability is fixed in version 3.29.13 and later.
