Description
The Malcure Malware Scanner — #1 Toolset for WordPress Malware Removal plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Arbitrary File Deletion due to a missing capability check on the wpmr_delete_file() function in all versions up to, and including, 16.8.

This is only exploitable when advanced mode is enabled on the site.
