Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Message Filter for Contact Form 7 plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 1.6.3

Description The issue arises from a missing capability check on the saveFilter() function, allowing authenticated attackers with Subscriber-level access and above to create new filters, thus enabling unauthorized modification of data.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 1.6.3, update to a version that includes a fix for the missing capability check on the saveFilter() function. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the saveFilter() function to prevent unauthorized data modification. Restrict Subscriber-level access and above to minimize the risk of exploitation.
