AI Powered Q&A
Can you explain this vulnerability to me?
The vulnerability in the Kallyas theme for WordPress allows authenticated users with Contributor-level access or higher to delete arbitrary folders on the server. This happens because the delete_font() function does not properly validate file paths, enabling attackers to specify and delete folders they should not have access to.
How can this vulnerability impact me? :
This vulnerability can lead to significant damage by allowing attackers to delete important folders on the server, potentially disrupting website functionality, causing data loss, and impacting availability. Since it requires only Contributor-level access, it increases the risk from users who normally have limited permissions.
