| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
The Bricks theme for WordPress versions up to, and including, 1.8.1
Description
The issue is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the
save settings function, making it possible for unauthenticated attackers to modify the theme's settings. This includes enabling a setting that allows lower-privileged users, such as contributors, to perform code execution via a forged request, granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action like clicking on a link.Recommendations
For versions up to, and including, 1.8.1, update to a version that includes the fix for the missing or incorrect nonce validation on the
save settings function. As a temporary workaround, consider disabling the save settings function until a patch is available to prevent modification of the theme's settings by unauthenticated attackers.Fix
