Unauthenticated arbitrary file deletion in the Simple File List WordPress plugin (versions up to and including 6.3.7) allows remote attackers to delete any file the web server can write to, including wp-config.php, which can escalate to remote code execution. The flaw lives in the eeSFL_DeleteFile function and is reachable via the simplefilelist_edit_job AJAX action registered through wp_ajax_nopriv_, with the is_admin() guard rendered ineffective because that function always returns true on admin-ajax.php. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, but the trivial reachability and high-value target (WordPress) make weaponization straightforward.
Arbitrary file modification and deletion in the Simple File List WordPress plugin (versions up to and including 6.3.7) allows unauthenticated remote attackers to alter or remove files on the server. The flaw stems from a broken authorization guard where an is_admin() check short-circuits before the AllowFrontManage setting is evaluated, leaving every installation exposed regardless of configuration. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, but the bug is reachable on default settings and was disclosed by Wordfence.
Unauthorized file operations in the Simple File List WordPress plugin (versions through 6.3.7) allow authenticated contributors to delete, move, create folders, and download arbitrary server files by exploiting a missing authorization check on the 'frontmanage' shortcode attribute. The attack is non-trivial but fully described: an attacker creates a draft post embedding the 'eeSFL' shortcode, loads the WordPress post preview endpoint to harvest a valid nonce, then submits file operation requests to ee-list-ops-bar-process.php that bypass the intended privilege checks. No public exploit code and no active exploitation (CISA KEV) have been identified at time of analysis; a patch changeset (3579098) exists in the plugin repository, though the released fixed version is not independently confirmed.
