# CVE-2026-92713: Modula Image Gallery \<= 3.0.2 - Missing Authorization to Authenticated (Author+) Arbitrary File Deletion (Non-PHP) via 'file' Parameter

- 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: 2026-09-25 · Updated: 2026-09-25

## Affected

- wpchill Modula Image Gallery – Photo Grid & Video Gallery: through 3.0.2

## Description

The Modula Image Gallery – Photo Grid & Video Gallery plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file deletion due to insufficient file path validation in the upload_image function in all versions up to, and including, 3.0.2. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with author-level access and above, to delete arbitrary files on the server. The path restriction to wp-content/uploads is not an effective ownership boundary, as all user attachment files reside within that tree, and Authors trivially satisfy the edit_post check on their own galleries.
