Vulnerability Overview

The KB Support plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to user data retrieval in versions up to, and including, 1.5.88. This is due to to a missing capability check on the kbs_ajax_get_customer_data() function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with minimal permissions, such as a subscriber, to execute the function and retrieve limited user data like email, name, phone, and url.

Technical Analysis

REMEDIATION: Update to version 1.5.89, or a newer patched version --- IDENTIFIER: CWE-862 (Missing Authorization) The product does not perform an authorization check when an actor attempts to access a resource or perform an action.
