Descriptions
Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal') vulnerability in JoomSky JS Help Desk allows Path Traversal. This issue affects JS Help Desk: from n/a through 2.9.2.
The JS Help Desk – The Ultimate Help Desk & Support Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file deletion due to insufficient file path validation in a function in all versions up to, and including, 2.9.2. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers 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).
