CVE-2024-11350 (GCVE-0-2024-11350)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2025-01-08 08:18 – Updated: 2025-01-08 14:07

Title

AdForest <= 5.1.6 - Privilege Escalation via Password Reset/Account Takeover

Summary

The AdForest theme for WordPress is vulnerable to privilege escalation via account takeover in all versions up to, and including, 5.1.6. This is due to the plugin not properly validating a user's identity prior to updating their password through the adforest_reset_password() function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to change arbitrary user's passwords, including administrators, and leverage that to gain access to their account.

Severity ?

9.8 (Critical)
