Descriptions

The Contact Form Plugin by Fluent Forms for Quiz, Survey, and Drag & Drop WP Form Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to privilege escalation due to a missing capability check on the /wp-json/fluentform/v1/managers REST API endpoint in all versions up to, and including, 5.1.16. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to grant users with Fluent Form management permissions which gives them access to all of the plugin's settings and features. This also makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to delete manager accounts.

El complemento Contact Form Plugin by Fluent Forms for Quiz, Survey, and Drag &amp; Drop WP Form Builder para WordPress es vulnerable a la escalada de privilegios debido a una falta de verificación de capacidad en el punto final de la API REST /wp-json/fluentform/v1/managers en todos versiones hasta la 5.1.16 inclusive. Esto hace posible que atacantes no autenticados otorguen a los usuarios permisos de administración de Fluent Form, lo que les da acceso a todas las configuraciones y funciones del complemento. Esto también hace posible que atacantes no autenticados eliminen cuentas de administrador.
