Descriptions

The WP-DBManager WordPress plugin before 2.80.8 does not prevent administrators from running arbitrary commands on the server in multisite installations, where only super-administrators should.

El plugin WP-DBManager de WordPress versiones anteriores a 2.80.8, no evita que administradores ejecuten comandos arbitrarios en el servidor en instalaciones multisitio, donde sólo deberían hacerlo los superadministradores.

The WP-DBManager plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to remote code execution due to an incorrect capability check in the ~/database-backup.php file in versions up to, and including, 2.80.7. This makes it possible for high level authenticated users, such as administrators, to run arbitrary commands on the affected server. This only affects multi-site installations where an administrator wouldn't have the capability to run arbitrary code.
