The aDirectory – WordPress Directory Listing Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized loss of data due to a missing capability check on the adqs_delete_listing() function in all versions up to, and including, 2.3. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to delete arbitrary posts.
