Flash & HTML5 Video < 2.5.31 - Missing Authorization

Description

The Flash & HTML5 Video plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized access due to a missing capability check on several AJAX actions in versions up to, and including, 2.5.30. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to update views, create thumbnails, and more.
