Doccure <= 1.5.0 - Unauthenticated Arbitrary User Password Change
Strategic Overview
Vulnerability Overview
The Doccure theme for WordPress is vulnerable to Arbitrary User Password Change in versions up to, and including, 1.5.0. This is due to the plugin providing user-controlled access to objects, letting a user bypass authorization and access system resources. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to change user passwords and potentially take over administrator accounts.
Technical Analysis
REMEDIATION: Update to version 1.5.1, or a newer patched version --- IDENTIFIER: CWE-639 (Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key) The system's authorization functionality does not prevent one user from gaining access to another user's data or record by modifying the key value identifying the data.
