Descriptions

The External Database Based Actions plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authentication bypass in versions up to, and including, 0.1. This is due to a missing capability check in the 'edba_admin_handle' function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level permissions and above, to update the plugin settings and log in as any existing user on the site, such as an administrator.

El complemento External Database Based Actions para WordPress es vulnerable a la omisión de autenticación en versiones hasta la 0.1 incluida. Esto se debe a una comprobación de capacidad faltante en la función 'edba_admin_handle'. Esto permite que atacantes autenticados, con permisos de nivel de suscriptor y superiores, actualicen la configuración del complemento e inicien sesión como cualquier usuario existente en el sitio, como un administrador.
