Description

The Permalink Manager Lite plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the 'ajax_save_permalink' function in all versions up to, and including, 2.4.3.1. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with author access and above, to modify the permalinks of arbitrary posts.

Affected WordPress components

A confirmed match is backed by the plugin or theme slug. A possible match is based on the product name only and should be verified.

Affected products and versions

  • mbis Permalink Manager Lite — Up to and including 2.4.3.1
  • permalink_manager_lite_project permalink_manager_lite — Up to and including 2.4.3.1
