Vulnerability Overview

The Access Code Feeder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass due to a missing capability check on the functions covering its AJAX actions in versions up to, and including, 1.0.3. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to delete feeds and for authenticated users, with subscriber-level access or above, to change the feed base URL. Furthermore, no nonce check is present making these functions vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery.
