# CVE-2024-6885: MaxiBlocks: 2200+ Patterns, 190 Pages, 14.2K Icons & 100 Styles \<= 1.9.2 - Authenticated (Subscriber+) Arbitrary File Deletion

- Severity: CVSS 8.1 (High), CNA
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:H
- CISA SSVC: exploitation=none, automatable=no, technicalImpact=partial
- Known exploited (CISA KEV): no
- Published: 2024-07-23 · Updated: 2026-04-08

## Affected

- ckp267 MaxiBlocks Builder | 17,000+ Design Assets, Patterns, Icons & Starter Sites: through 1.9.2

## Description

The MaxiBlocks: 2200+ Patterns, 190 Pages, 14.2K Icons & 100 Styles plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file deletion due to insufficient file path validation in the maxi_remove_custom_image_size and maxi_add_custom_image_size functions in all versions up to, and including, 1.9.2. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, 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).
