CVE-2026-120559 Details
Description
The Contact Form Extender for Divi Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Arbitrary File Deletion due to insufficient file path validation in the cfefd_remove_uploaded_file() function in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.6. 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). The nonce protecting this AJAX action is rendered into the public page source via wp_localize_script and is therefore retrievable by any unauthenticated visitor.
A vulnerability allowing arbitrary file deletion has been identified in the Contact Form Extender for Divi Builder plugin for WordPress, affecting all versions through 1.0.6. The issue arises from inadequate file path validation in the cfefd_remove_uploaded_file() function, enabling unauthenticated attackers to delete arbitrary files on the server. This deletion can lead to remote code execution if critical files, such as wp-config.php, are removed. The nonce that secures this AJAX action is exposed in the public page source via wp_localize_script, making it accessible to any unauthenticated visitor.
Users are advised to update the Contact Form Extender for Divi Builder plugin to version 1.0.7 or a newer patched version.
