8th percentile - higher than 8% of all known CVEs

Summary

The WebTotem Backups WordPress plugin before 1.1.0 does not validate a user-supplied file path, does not check the capability of the user making the request, and discards the result of its own CSRF check, allowing any authenticated user, such as a subscriber, to delete arbitrary files on the server, which can lead to a site takeover.

Risk Assessment

An authenticated low-privileged user can delete critical files, potentially leading to full site takeover and data loss.

Recommendation

Immediately update the WebTotem Backups plugin to version 1.1.0 or later and restrict access to the WordPress admin panel.
