Vulnerability Overview

The Wp Social plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in versions up to, and including, 1.9.0. This is due to missing capability checks on the 'export_users_content_csv' function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with minimal permissions such as subscribers to export user content such as user logins and passwords of various social media providers.

Technical Analysis

REMEDIATION: Update to version 2.0, or a newer patched version --- IDENTIFIER: CWE-352 (Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF)) The web application does not, or cannot, sufficiently verify whether a request was intentionally provided by the user who sent the request, which could have originated from an unauthorized actor.
