A Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability has been identified in the Restrict File Access plugin for WordPress, affecting all versions through 1.1.2. The vulnerability arises from inadequate nonce validation on the 'restrict-file-access' page, enabling unauthenticated attackers to delete arbitrary files from the server. This file deletion could lead to remote code execution if a critical file, such as wp-config.php, is removed, especially if an administrator is tricked into initiating the action.
