Descriptions

The Auto Affiliate Links plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the aalAddLink function in all versions up to, and including, 6.4.3. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber access or higher, to add arbitrary links to posts.

El complemento Auto Affiliate Links para WordPress es vulnerable a modificaciones no autorizadas de datos debido a una falta de verificación de capacidad en la función aalAddLink en todas las versiones hasta la 6.4.3 incluida. Esto hace posible que atacantes autenticados, con acceso de suscriptor o superior, agreguen enlaces arbitrarios a las publicaciones.
