Description
The Hotel Booking Lite plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the maybeDownload() function and insufficient path validation in all versions up to 4.8.5 (exclusive). This makes it possible for unauthenticated to retrieve and delete arbitrary files which can be leveraged for remote code execution.
