WP Social Comments < 1.7.4 - Missing Authorization via wpfc_allow_comments()

Description

The WP Social Comments plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the wpfc_allow_comments() function in all versions up to, and including, 1.7.3. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to turn on comments for posts.
