Summary

The Ever Accounting WordPress plugin before 2.3.3 does not restrict the file path supplied to its CSV import routine to an allowed directory, which is an external control of file path (CWE-73). A user with the custom Accounting Manager role, which lacks administrator privileges, can delete arbitrary files on the server, such as wp-config.php, taking the entire site offline. A public exploit is linked in the references.
