WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities

Transposh WordPress Translation <= 1.0.8 - Subscriber+ Unauthorised Calls

Description

The plugin exposes a couple of sensitive actions such has “tp_reset” under the Utilities tab (/wp-admin/admin.php?page=tp_utils), which can be used/executed as the lowest-privileged user. Basically all Utilities functionalities are vulnerable this way, which involves resetting configurations and backup/restore operations.

Proof of Concept
