Technical description

The Ninja Forms - File Uploads add-on for WordPress is vulnerable to Arbitrary File Deletion (and arbitrary file read via S3/Dropbox/Google Drive exfiltration) in versions up to, and including, 3.3.36. The flaw spans NF_FU_Fields_Upload::process() in includes/fields/upload.php — which returns early (leaving the client-supplied files[] intact) whenever a public submission carries a nonempty extra.saveProgress — and NF_FU_External_Abstracts_Service::process_upload() in includes/external/abstracts/service.php, whose authoritative-path reload only fires when the client sends upload_id. By omitting upload_id, an attacker's data[file_path] survives into the Background Upload queue and is used by both upload_file_to_s3() (as SourceFile) and the maybe_delete_server_file() unlink() call in includes/external/abstracts/backgroundupload.php, with no canonicalization or upload-directory containment check (the plugin's own is_path_within_upload_dir() helper is only applied on admin paths). This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to delete arbitrary files on the affected site's server which may make remote code execution possible — specifically, deleting wp-config.php forces WordPress into its setup screen, enabling full site takeover.

———ClickMigrate is a database migration tool for ClickHouse with automatic SQL migration management and version tracking. Prior to version 1.0.3, a path traversal vulnerability in the revision command allowed a crafted migration name supplied via the -m argument to escape the intended migrations directory. Under specific conditions, an attacker could cause the tool to create a .sql file in an arbitrary location writable by the user executing the command. This issue is only exploitable if an attacker can influence the migration name passed to the revision command, such as through an insecure automation or CI/CD pipeline that forwards untrusted input. This issue has been patched in version 1.0.3.2h CVE-2026-674499.8 CRI

Prior to version 1.21.2, a path traversal in the TUS upload webhook handler (app/api/tus/hooks/route.ts) allowed an unauthenticated attacker to overwrite arbitrary files under the private data directory, including /data/private/keys/master_key.bin (the AES-256-GCM master key). This issue has been patched in version 1.21.2.3h CVE-2026-659505.8 MED
