Description The WP Job Portal plugin for WordPress is susceptible to arbitrary file deletion. This is due to inadequate file path validation within the WPJOBPORTALcustomfields::removeFileCustom function. Authenticated attackers with Subscriber-level access or higher can delete arbitrary files on the server. Deletion of specific files, such as wp-config.php, could lead to remote code execution.
