Descriptions
wp-admin/plugins.php in WordPress before 3.4.2, when the multisite feature is enabled, does not check for network-administrator privileges before performing a network-wide activation of an installed plugin, which might allow remote authenticated users to make unintended plugin changes by leveraging the Administrator role.
wp-admin/plugins.php en WordPress anterior a v3.4.2, cuando la característica multisitio está activada, no comprueba los privilegios de administrador de red antes de llevar a cabo la activación de red de un plugin instalado, lo cual podría permitir a usuarios remotos autenticados para realizar cambios no deseados del plugin mediante el aprovechamiento de la función de administrador.
