Title
Export and Import Users and Customers <= 2.6.2 - Directory Traversal to Authenticated (Administrator+) Limited Arbitrary File Deletion via admin_log_page Function
Summary
The Export and Import Users and Customers plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file deletion due to insufficient file path validation in the admin_log_page() function in all versions up to, and including, 2.6.2. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Administrator-level access and above, to delete arbitrary log files on the server.
