Descriptions

The VikBooking Hotel Booking Engine & PMS WordPress plugin before 1.6.8's access control mechanism fails to properly restrict access to its settings, permitting any users that can access a menu to manipulate requests and perform unauthorized actions such as editing, renaming or deleting (categories for example) despite initial settings prohibiting such access. This vulnerability resembles broken access control, enabling unauthorized users to modify critical VikBooking Hotel Booking Engine & PMS WordPress plugin before 1.6.8 configurations.

El complemento VikBooking Hotel Booking Engine &amp; PMS WordPress anterior a 1.6.8 no restringe adecuadamente el acceso a su configuración, lo que permite a cualquier usuario que pueda acceder a un menú manipular solicitudes y realizar acciones no autorizadas como editar, cambiar el nombre o eliminar (categorías para ejemplo) a pesar de que la configuración inicial prohíbe dicho acceso. Esta vulnerabilidad se asemeja a un control de acceso roto, lo que permite a usuarios no autorizados modificar el complemento crítico de VikBooking Hotel Booking Engine y PMS WordPress antes de las configuraciones 1.6.8.

The VikBooking Hotel Booking Engine & PMS plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized access due to insufficient capability checking in all versions up to, and including, 1.6.7. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to modify categories and perform several unauthorized actions.
