Descriptions

The Quiz Maker WordPress plugin before 6.4.9.5 does not adequately authorize the `ays_quiz_author_user_search` AJAX action, allowing an unauthenticated attacker to perform a search for users of the system, ultimately leaking user email addresses.

El complemento Quiz Maker WordPress anterior a 6.4.9.5 no autoriza adecuadamente la acción AJAX `ays_quiz_author_user_search`, lo que permite que un atacante no autenticado realice una búsqueda de usuarios del sistema y, en última instancia, filtre las direcciones de correo electrónico de los usuarios.

The Quiz Maker plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized access of data due to a missing capability check on the ays_quiz_author_user_search function in all versions up to 6.4.9.5 (exclusive). This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to perform a search for users and obtain user email addresses.
