Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions AnimateGL Animations for WordPress – Elementor & Gutenberg Blocks Animations plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 1.4.23

Description The issue is related to a missing capability check on the 'agl json' AJAX action, allowing unauthenticated attackers to update the plugin's settings. This makes it possible for attackers to modify data without proper authorization.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 1.4.23, update to a version higher than 1.4.23 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider disabling the 'agl json' AJAX action until a patch is available. Restrict access to the plugin's settings to minimize the risk of exploitation.
