{"id":"CVE-2026-116617","published":"2026-11-05T05:18:19.240","lastModified":"2026-11-05T05:18:19.380","description":"The Motors – Car Dealership & Classified Listings Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to File Deletion in all versions up to, and including, 1.4.128 The vulnerability exists because `stm_save_user_extra_fields()`, hooked to `personal_options_update`, writes the attacker-controlled `stm_dealer_logo_path` parameter directly to user meta without an ownership check binding the submitted path to the submitting user — unlike the `stm_payment_status` and `stm_lost_password_hash` fields, this field is not gated by a `manage_options` or `edit_users` capability check. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to delete image files belonging to other users under `wp-content/uploads` — including other users' avatars, dealer logos, and uploaded media — by storing a crafted path via their own profile and then triggering `unlink()` through the become-dealer form on their author page. Note that the two path guards (`stm_mvl_is_path_within_uploads` and `stm_mvl_is_allowed_image_file`) do restrict the attack surface to files with an image extension that resolve within the uploads basedir; files outside that directory, such as `wp-config.php` or plugin PHP files, cannot be reached.","cvssScore":8.1,"cvssSeverity":"HIGH","cvssVector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:H","cwes":["CWE-22"],"vendors":[],"products":[],"references":[{"url":"https://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/motors-car-dealership-classified-listings/","tags":[]},{"url":"https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/motors-car-dealership-classified-listings/tags/1.4.126/includes/helpers.php#L1400","tags":[]},{"url":"https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/motors-car-dealership-classified-listings/tags/1.4.126/includes/user-extra.php#L449","tags":[]},{"url":"https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/motors-car-dealership-classified-listings/tags/1.4.126/templates/user/private/become-dealer.php#L168","tags":[]},{"url":"https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/changeset?reponame=&new=3774781%40motors-car-dealership-classified-listings%2Ftags%2F1.4.129&old=3766015%40motors-car-dealership-classified-listings%2Ftags%2F1.4.128","tags":[]},{"url":"https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/id/9760bf39-6ec3-416e-95f0-3b3ce3ecdf7f?source=cve","tags":[]}],"exploitRefs":[],"hasPoc":false,"ai":null}
