WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities
Ruby Help Desk < 1.3.4 - Subscriber+ Ticket Update via IDOR
Description
The plugin does not ensure that the ticket being modified belongs to the user making the request, allowing an attacker to close and/or add files and replies to tickets other than their own.
Proof of Concept
1. Create a ticket using a user with Subscriber privileges. 2. Click on "Close Ticket" and intercept the request using an HTTP Proxy (e.g., BurpSuite). 3. Change the value of the "post_ID" parameter to another existing Ticket ID. Note: Since the Ticket ID (post_ID) is an incremental numerical value, it is easy to brute force it and affect all existing tickets.
