Descriptions

The Sitemap by click5 WordPress plugin before 1.0.36 does not have authorisation and CSRF checks when updating options via a REST endpoint, and does not ensure that the option to be updated belongs to the plugin. As a result, unauthenticated attackers could change arbitrary blog options, such as the users_can_register and default_role, allowing them to create a new admin account and take over the blog.

El plugin Sitemap by click5 de WordPress versiones anteriores a 1.0.36, no dispone de comprobaciones de autorización y de tipo CSRF cuando son actualizadas las opciones por medio de un endpoint REST, y no es asegurado de que la opción que va a actualizarse pertenezca al plugin. Como resultado, atacantes no autenticados podrían cambiar opciones arbitrarias del blog, como users_can_register y default_role, permitiéndoles crear una nueva cuenta de administrador y tomar el control del blog
