Vulnerability Overview

The Maintenance & Coming Soon Redirect Animation plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the 'wploti_add_whitelisted_roles_option', 'wploti_remove_whitelisted_roles_option', 'wploti_add_whitelisted_users_option', 'wploti_remove_whitelisted_users_option', and 'wploti_uploaded_animation_save_option' functions in all versions up to, and including, 2.1.3. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to modify certain plugin settings.
