Description

The Kirki – Freeform Page Builder, Website Builder & Customizer plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file deletion due to insufficient file path validation and missing capability check in the 'downloadZIP' function in all versions up to, and including, 6.0.6. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to read and delete arbitrary files limited in the WordPress uploads base directory.
