FKIE_CVE-2024-13852

Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2025-02-18 05:15 - Updated: 2025-02-21 15:50
Severity ?
8.8 (High) - CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Summary
The Option Editor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in version 1.0. This is due to missing nonce validation on the plugin_page() function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to update arbitrary options on the WordPress site via a forged request, granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link. 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.

Esto hace posible que los atacantes no autenticados actualicen opciones arbitrarias en el sitio de WordPress a trav\u00e9s de una solicitud forjada, otorgadas que pueden enga\u00f1ar a un administrador del sitio para que realice una acci\u00f3n como hacer clic en un enlace. Esto se puede aprovechar para actualizar el papel predeterminado para el registro al administrador y habilitar el registro del usuario para los atacantes obtener acceso administrativo a los usuarios a un sitio vulnerable."
