Descriptions

The The Ultimate WordPress Toolkit – WP Extended plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data that can lead to privilege escalation due to a missing capability check on the module_all_toggle_ajax() function in all versions up to, and including, 3.0.8. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to update arbitrary options on the WordPress site. This can be leveraged to update the default role for registration to administrator and enable user registration for attackers to gain administrative user access to a vulnerable site.

El complemento The Ultimate WordPress Toolkit – WP Extended para WordPress es vulnerable a la modificación no autorizada de datos que puede provocar una escalada de privilegios debido a una verificación de capacidad faltante en la función module_all_toggle_ajax() en todas las versiones hasta la 3.0.8 incluida. Esto permite que atacantes autenticados, con acceso de nivel de suscriptor y superior, actualicen opciones arbitrarias en el sitio de WordPress. Esto se puede aprovechar para actualizar el rol predeterminado para el registro como administrador y habilitar el registro de usuarios para que los atacantes obtengan acceso de usuario administrativo a un sitio vulnerable.
