The Export and Import Users and Customers plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the hf_update_customer function called via an AJAX action in versions up to, and including, 2.4.1. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with shop manager-level permissions to change user passwords and potentially take over administrator accounts.
Affected Software
| Name | Vendor | Start Version | End Version |
|---|---|---|---|
| Import_export_wordpress_users | Webtoffee | * | 2.4.1 (including) |
