Vulnerability Overview

The Zephyr Project Manager plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass due to a missing capability check and lack of authentication/authorization on its AJAX endpoints in versions up to 3.2.55. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to utilize them. Additionally, user input is not properly sanitized leading to Stored Cross-Site Scripting.

Technical Analysis

REMEDIATION: Update to version 3.2.55, or a newer patched version --- IDENTIFIER: CWE-79 (Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting')) The product does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes user-controllable input before it is placed in output that is used as a web page that is served to other users.
