CVE-2024-10672: multiple page generator vulnerability

What is known

The Multiple Page Generator Plugin – MPG plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file deletion due to insufficient file path validation in the mpg_upsert_project_source_block() function in all versions up to, and including, 4.0.2. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with editor-level access and above, to delete limited files on the server.

Business impact

Successful exploitation of CVE-2024-10672, a low vulnerability (CVSS 2.7) affecting multiple page generator, may affect the confidentiality, integrity or availability of the vulnerable environment. The exact impact depends on the installed version, exposed interfaces and deployment configuration.
