Descriptions

Missing Authorization vulnerability in ShortPixel ShortPixel Adaptive Images.This issue affects ShortPixel Adaptive Images: from n/a through 3.8.2.

The ShortPixel Adaptive Images plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the activate_ai_handler and deactivate_ai_handler functions in versions up to, and including, 3.8.2. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to activate or deactivate the AI handler functionality.
