Details

The Medical Addon for Elementor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in all versions up to, and including, 1.6.2 via the 'namedical_elementor_template' shortcode due to missing validation on a user controlled key. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to read the content of draft, pending, and private posts.

Details

A vulnerability in the REST API of Cisco Slido could have allowed an authenticated, remote attacker to access the social profile data of other users or affect quiz and poll results. Cisco has addressed this vulnerability in Cisco Slido and no customer action is needed.

This vulnerability existed because of the presence of an insecure direct object reference. Prior to this vulnerability being addressed, an attacker could have exploited this vulnerability by sending a crafted request to the vulnerable API endpoint. A successful exploit could have allowed the attacker to view the social profiles of other users or affect quiz and poll results.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2024-06-22 06:30 – Updated: 2024-06-22 06:30
VLAI
Details

The Bricks Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in all versions up to, and including, 1.9.8 via the postId parameter due to missing validation on a user controlled key. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to modify posts and pages created by other users including admins. As a requirement for this, an admin would have to enable access to the editor specifically for such a user or enable it for all users with a certain user account type.

Mitigation
Architecture and Design

For each and every data access, ensure that the user has sufficient privilege to access the record that is being requested.

Mitigation
Architecture and Design Implementation

Make sure that the key that is used in the lookup of a specific user's record is not controllable externally by the user or that any tampering can be detected.
