The Alchemist Ajax Upload plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized media file deletion due to a missing capability check on the 'delete_file' function in all versions up to, and including, 1.1. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to delete arbitrary WordPress media attachments.
