Quick Featured Images < 13.7.3 - Insecure Direct Object Reference to Image Manipulation
Description
The Quick Featured Images plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in all versions up to, and including, 13.7.2 via the qfi_set_thumbnail and qfi_delete_thumbnail AJAX actions due to missing validation on a user controlled key. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Author-level access and above, to change or remove featured images of other user's posts.
