Streamit <= 4.0.2 is vulnerable to Authenticated (Subscriber+) Privilege Escalation via User Email Change/Account Takeover vulnerability

Unauthenticated
Published
2025-04-06

The Streamit theme for WordPress is vulnerable to privilege escalation via account takeover in all versions up to, and including, 4.0.2. This is due to the plugin not properly validating a user's identity prior to updating their details like email in the 'st_Authentication_Controller::edit_profile' function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to change arbitrary user's email addresses, including administrators, and leverage that to reset the user's password and gain access to their account.

CVSS

Score:8.8

Severity:High

Version: 4.0.2

There is a patch available in v4.0.3 and we strongly recommend you update to this version as soon as possible.
