## Affected

- nmedia Frontend File Manager Plugin: through 21.5

## Description

The Frontend File Manager Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized loss of data due to a missing capability check on the wpfm_delete_multiple_files() function in all versions up to, and including, 21.5. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to delete arbitrary posts.
