Overview

CVE-2024-7782 is a high-severity vulnerability. It was published on August 20, 2024 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.7 (HIGH).

This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.7, rated HIGH. It can be exploited remotely over the network. Some level of privileges is required for exploitation.

Technical description

The Contact Form by Bit Form: Multi Step Form, Calculation Contact Form, Payment Contact Form & Custom Contact Form builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file deletion due to insufficient file path validation in the iconRemove function in versions 2.0 to 2.13.4. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Administrator-level access and above, 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).

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories, patches, and mitigation guidance. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
