WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities

uListing <= 2.1.7 - Subscriber+ Privilege Escalation

Description

The plugin is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation due to the stm_listing_profile_edit AJAX action not having enough restriction on the user meta that can be updated. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to elevate their privileges to that of an administrator.
