Descriptions

The Directorist WordPress plugin before 7.4.2.2 suffers from an IDOR vulnerability which an attacker can exploit to change the password of arbitrary users instead of his own.

El complemento Directorist de WordPress anterior a 7.4.2.2 sufre una vulnerabilidad IDOR que un atacante puede aprovechar para cambiar la contraseƱa de usuarios arbitrarios en lugar de la suya propia.

The Directorist plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object References in versions up to, and including, 7.4.2.1. This is due to the plugin providing user-controlled access to objects, letting a user bypass authorization and access system resources. This makes it possible for subscriber-level attackers to change user passwords and potentially take over administrator accounts.
