Title
Rate Star Review Vote <= 1.6.4 - Missing Authorization to Authenticated (Subscriber+) Arbitrary Post Modification via 'rating_id' Parameter
Summary
The Rate Star Review Vote - AJAX Reviews, Votes, Star Ratings plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Missing Authorization in all versions up to and including 1.6.4. The vwrsr_review() AJAX handler lacks both capability checks and nonce verification. The only access control is an is_user_logged_in() check. When the 'form' parameter is set to 'update', the function takes an arbitrary post ID from the user-supplied 'rating_id' GET parameter, sets it as the post ID in the update array, and passes it directly to wp_update_post(). This overwrites the target post's title, content, author (changed to the attacker's user ID), post_type (changed to the plugin's custom post type, default 'review'), and status. Additionally, update_post_meta() is called on the arbitrary post ID at lines 758-763, modifying its metadata. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to modify the title, content, author, post type, and metadata of arbitrary posts and pages on the site via the 'rating_id' parameter, effectively allowing full post content takeover.

CVE-2024-13392 (GCVE-0-2024-13392)

Title
Rate Star Review Vote – AJAX Reviews, Votes, Star Ratings <= 1.6.3 - Authenticated (Contributor+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting
Summary
The Rate Star Review Vote – AJAX Reviews, Votes, Star Ratings plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's 'videowhisper_reviews' shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 1.6.3 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

This overwrites the target post\u0027s title, content, author (changed to the attacker\u0027s user ID), post_type (changed to the plugin\u0027s custom post type, default \u0027review\u0027), and status. Additionally, update_post_meta() is called on the arbitrary post ID at lines 758-763, modifying its metadata. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to modify the title, content, author, post type, and metadata of arbitrary posts and pages on the site via the \u0027rating_id\u0027 parameter, effectively allowing full post content takeover."

CVE-2024-13392 (GCVE-0-2024-13392)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2025-01-18 07:11 – Updated: 2026-04-08 17:31

Title
Rate Star Review Vote – AJAX Reviews, Votes, Star Ratings <= 1.6.3 - Authenticated (Contributor+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting
Summary
The Rate Star Review Vote – AJAX Reviews, Votes, Star Ratings plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's 'videowhisper_reviews' shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 1.6.3 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
