Description

The SureDash – Community, Courses & Member Dashboard plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file deletion due to insufficient file path validation a function in all versions up to, and including, 1.8.0. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with SureDash User-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).
