Freemius SDK <= 2.2.3 - Missing Authorization to Arbitrary Options Update

Wordfence Intelligence > Vulnerability Database > Freemius SDK <= 2.2.3 - Missing Authorization to Arbitrary Options Update

8.8

Missing Authorization

CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H

CVSS	8.8 (High)
Publicly Published	February 25, 2019
Last Updated	January 22, 2024

Description

The Freemius SDK for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass due to a missing capability check on the _get_db_option and _set_db_option functions in versions up to, and including, 2.2.3. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level permissions and above, to change site settings and potentially take over the site.
