CVE, Research URL

CVE-2025-8141

Published on
Aug 20, 2025
Research Description
The Redirection for Contact Form 7 plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file deletion due to insufficient file path validation in the delete_associated_files function in all versions up to, and including, 3.2.4. 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).
Affected versions
Min -, max 3.2.5.
Status
vulnerable
