Descriptions

The WP Links Page plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the 'wplf_ajax_update_screenshots' function in all versions up to, and including, 4.9.5. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to regenerate the link's thumbnail image.

El complemento WP Links Page para WordPress es vulnerable a modificaciones no autorizadas de datos debido a una falta de verificación de capacidad en la función 'wplf_ajax_update_screenshots' en todas las versiones hasta la 4.9.5 incluida. Esto hace posible que los atacantes autenticados, con acceso de nivel de suscriptor y superior, regeneren la imagen en miniatura del enlace.
