Vulnerability Overview

The WooSwipe WooCommerce Gallery plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass due to a missing capability check on the update() function called via the admin_menu hook in versions up to, and including, 3.0.2. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with minimal permissions, such as a subscriber, to update the plugins settings. This can also be exploited via Cross-Site Request Forgery.

Technical Analysis

REMEDIATION: Update to version 3.0.3, 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.
