Title
Contest Gallery <= 24.0.7 - Unauthenticated Arbitrary Password Reset to Privilege Escalation/Account Takeover
Summary
The Contest Gallery plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to privilege escalation via account takeover in all versions up to, and including, 24.0.7. This is due to the plugin not properly validating a user's identity prior to updating their password. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to change arbitrary user's passwords, including administrators, and leverage that to gain access to their account.

Title
BoomBox Theme Extensions <= 1.8.0 - Authenticated (Subscriber+) Privilege Escalation via Password Reset/Account Takeover in boombox_ajax_reset_password
Summary
The BoomBox Theme Extensions plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to privilege escalation via account takeover in all versions up to, and including, 1.8.0. This is due to the plugin not properly validating a user's identity prior to updating their password through the 'boombox_ajax_reset_password' function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level privileges and above, to change arbitrary user's passwords, including administrators, and leverage that to gain access to their account.

Mitigation

Phase: Architecture and Design

Description:

  • Make sure that all input supplied by the user to the password recovery mechanism is thoroughly filtered and validated.
Mitigation

Phase: Architecture and Design

Description:

  • Do not use standard weak security questions and use several security questions.
Mitigation

Phase: Architecture and Design

Description:

  • Make sure that there is throttling on the number of incorrect answers to a security question. Disable the password recovery functionality after a certain (small) number of incorrect guesses.
Mitigation

Phase: Architecture and Design

Description:

  • Require that the user properly answers the security question prior to resetting their password and sending the new password to the e-mail address of record.
Mitigation

Phase: Architecture and Design

Description:

  • Never allow the user to control what e-mail address the new password will be sent to in the password recovery mechanism.
Mitigation

Phase: Architecture and Design

Description:

  • Assign a new temporary password rather than revealing the original password.
CAPEC-50: Password Recovery Exploitation

An attacker may take advantage of the application feature to help users recover their forgotten passwords in order to gain access into the system with the same privileges as the original user. Generally password recovery schemes tend to be weak and insecure.
