Descriptions

The Image Watermark plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the watermark_action_ajax() function in all versions up to, and including, 1.7.3. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to apply and remove watermarks from images.

El complemento Image Watermark para WordPress es vulnerable a modificaciones no autorizadas de datos debido a una falta de verificación de capacidad en la función watermark_action_ajax() en todas las versiones hasta la 1.7.3 incluida. Esto hace posible que atacantes autenticados, con acceso de nivel de suscriptor y superior, apliquen y eliminen marcas de agua de las imágenes.
