Duplicate Page or Post <= 1.5.0 - Missing Authorization to Stored Cross-Site Scripting

Missing Authorization
CVE CVE-2021-25075
CVSS Medium (6.4)
Publicly Published January 24, 2022
Last Updated January 22, 2024
Researcher Krzysztof Zając
Description

The Duplicate Page or Post WordPress plugin before 1.5.1 does not have any authorisation and has a flawed CSRF check in the wpdevart_duplicate_post_parametrs_save_in_db AJAX action, allowing any authenticated users, such as subscriber to call it and change the plugin's settings, or perform such attack via CSRF. Furthermore, due to the lack of escaping, this could lead to Stored Cross-Site Scripting issues
