# Pay with a tweet WordPress plugin lets subscribers delete arbitrary server files

Link for people: https://infrastack.ai/live/CVE-2026-115734 (this .md is for agents)

The Pay with a tweet WordPress plugin through 1.0.5 deletes files at a path it does not validate, and its admin screens lack access checks. A logged-in user with the lowest Subscriber role can delete arbitrary files on the server, which can lead to full site compromise.

_Summary, check and fix written by a model from the sources; labelled as such._

## Affected

- wordpress:pay-with-a-tweet affected <= 1.0.5 fixed no fixed version listed

## How to check

Look for wp-content/plugins/pay-with-a-tweet/ or 'Pay with a tweet' in Plugins > Installed Plugins (or run: wp plugin list). Any installed version, 1.0.5 or earlier, is affected.

## Fix

No fixed version. The plugin is closed on WordPress.org (since 2026-10-26, pending review) and last released 1.0.5 in 2014. Remove and delete the plugin.

- 2026-11-11T06:30:42+00:00 analyst https://wordpress.org/plugins/pay-with-a-tweet/ — WordPress.org page (read): plugin closed 2026-10-26, latest 1.0.5, no fix. No WPScan page found. Not verified: page states closure, not an explicit no-fix; exploit status unknown.

## Documents

## From the sources

The Pay with a tweet WordPress plugin through 1.0.5 does not validate a file path before deleting it, nor does it restrict access to the relevant administration screens, allowing users with a role as low as Subscriber to delete arbitrary files on the server, which can lead to a full site compromise.
