Summary

The Database Cleaner plugin for WordPress through 1.4.7 lets authenticated attackers with Administrator-level access and above delete arbitrary database tables. The plugin does not restrict which tables can be deleted, which is an improper access control flaw (CWE-284). An attacker with Administrator access can delete core WordPress tables, affecting integrity and availability.

Description from the CNA

The Database Cleaner plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary table deletion in all versions up to, and including, 1.4.7. This is due to a lack of restriction on database tables that can be deleted. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Administrator-level access and above, to delete core WordPress tables.
