Report
The WP Tools plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass due to a missing capability check on the wptools_install_plugin() function in versions up to, and including, 3.42. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with minimal permission, such as a subscriber, to install other plugins owned by the developer on the vulnerable site. This could be used to install additional vulnerable plugins that could aid in further compromise of the site.
Score:4.3
Severity:Medium
Version: 3.42
There is a patch available in v3.43 and we strongly recommend you update to this version as soon as possible.
