AnonymousStrategic Overview
Vulnerability Overview
The Floating Action Button plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in versions up to, and including, 1.2 due to a missing capability check and nonce validation on the fz_fab_settings_save() function that is called via an AJAX action (including a nopriv action). This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to modify the plugin's settings.
Technical Analysis
