Advisory
Source description from Wordfence Intelligence, credited to HayMiz.
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.
