Quick Restaurant Menu <= 2.0.2 - Missing Authorization

Missing Authorization
CVE CVE-2023-0555
CVSS High (8.1)
Publicly Published January 27, 2023
Last Updated January 22, 2024
Researcher Marco Wotschka, Ivan Kuzymchak
Description

The Quick Restaurant Menu plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass due to a missing capability check on its AJAX actions in versions up to, and including, 2.0.2. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level permissions and above, to invoke those actions intended for administrator use. Actions include menu item creation, update and deletion and other menu management functions. Since the plugin does not verify that a post ID passed to one of its AJAX actions belongs to a menu item, this can lead to arbitrary post deletion/alteration.
