Descriptions

The Post Grid and Gutenberg Blocks plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to privilege escalation in versions 2.2.85 to 2.3.3. This is due to the plugin not properly restricting what user meta can be updated during profile registration. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to register on the site as an administrator.

El complemento Post Grid y Gutenberg Blocks para WordPress es vulnerable a la escalada de privilegios en las versiones 2.2.85 a 2.3.3. Esto se debe a que el complemento no restringe adecuadamente qué metadatos de usuario se pueden actualizar durante el registro del perfil. Esto hace posible que atacantes no autenticados se registren en el sitio como administradores.
