FKIE_CVE-2023-0555

Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2023-01-27 21:15 - Updated: 2026-04-08 18:17
Summary
The Quick Restaurant Menu plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass due to a missing capability check on its AJAX actions in versions up to, and including, 2.0.2. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level permissions and above, to invoke those actions intended for administrator use. Actions include menu item creation, update and deletion and other menu management functions. Since the plugin does not verify that a post ID passed to one of its AJAX actions belongs to a menu item, this can lead to arbitrary post deletion/alteration.

      "value": "El complemento Quick Restaurant Menu para WordPress es vulnerable a la omisi\u00f3n de autorizaci\u00f3n debido a una falta de verificaci\u00f3n de capacidad en sus acciones AJAX en versiones hasta la 2.0.2 incluida. Esto hace posible que los atacantes autenticados, con permisos de nivel de suscriptor y superiores, invoquen aquellas acciones destinadas al uso del administrador. Las acciones incluyen la creaci\u00f3n, actualizaci\u00f3n y eliminaci\u00f3n de elementos del men\u00fa y otras funciones de gesti\u00f3n del men\u00fa. Dado que el complemento no verifica que una ID de publicaci\u00f3n pasada a una de sus acciones AJAX pertenezca a un elemento del men\u00fa, esto puede llevar a la eliminaci\u00f3n/alteraci\u00f3n arbitraria de una publicaci\u00f3n."
