Vulnerabilidad de autorización faltante en Martin Gibson WP LinkedIn Auto Publish. Este problema afecta a WP LinkedIn Auto Publish: desde n/a hasta 8.11.

The WP LinkedIn Auto Publish plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the wp_linkedin_autopublish_delete_all_linkedin_settings() function in versions up to, and including, 8.11.
