CVE-2025-7712Madara - Core <= 2.2.3 - Unauthenticated Arbitrary File Deletion
Critical 9.1
In plain English
A critical-severity path traversal in Madara - Core from MangaBooth. There are no confirmed reports of exploitation so far. The chance it is exploited in the next 30 days is estimated at 1.0% (higher than 63% of all known vulnerabilities).
Official description
The Madara - Core plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file deletion due to insufficient file path validation in the wp_manga_delete_zip() function in all versions up to, and including, 2.2.3. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers 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).
