🚨 A logged-in admin could erase any file or directory on the system—like a hotel manager tossing out any guest’s luggage just because they feel like it! 🔥 This vulnerability is like having a trusted hotel manager who can access all the guest rooms but forgets to check IDs before disposing of luggage. Without proper checks, anyone could lose their belongings—except here, it’s your system files at stake! If exploited, an attacker could delete critical system files or directories, potentially leading to catastrophic data loss or service disruption. Imagine the chaos if your server goes down because someone decided to 'clean up' without permission—absolutely devastating!
