Unpatched WordPress Flaw Gives Attackers Full Control Over Your Site

Discovered by researchers at RIPS Technologies GmbH, the “authenticated arbitrary file deletion” vulnerability was reported 7 months ago to the WordPress security team but remains unpatched and affects all versions of WordPress, including the current 4.9.6.
