CVE ID :CVE-2025-14868 Published : April 16, 2026, 8:16 a.m. | 33 minutes ago Description :The Career Section plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery leading to Path Traversal and Arbitrary File Deletion in all versions up to, and including, 1.6. This is due to missing nonce validation and insufficient file path validation on the delete action in the 'appform_options_page_html' function.
