Descriptions

The ArtPlacer Widget WordPress plugin before 2.21.2 does not have authorisation check in place when deleting widgets, allowing ay authenticated users, such as subscriber, to delete arbitrary widgets

El complemento ArtPlacer Widget de WordPress anterior a 2.21.2 no cuenta con verificación de autorización al eliminar widgets, lo que permite a cualquier usuario autenticado, como el suscriptor, eliminar widgets arbitrarios.

The ArtPlacer Widget plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized loss of data due to a missing capability check on the artplacer_del AJAX action in all versions up to, and including, 2.21.1. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to delete arbitrary widgets.
