Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2025-05-07 03:15 - Updated: 2025-05-07 14:13
Severity ?
8.8 (High) - CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Summary
The WPshop 2 – E-Commerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to privilege escalation via account takeover in versions 2.0.0 to 2.6.0. This is due to the plugin not properly validating a user's identity prior to updating their details like email & password through the update() function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to change arbitrary user's passwords, including administrators, and leverage that to gain access to their account.

      "value": "El complemento WPshop 2 \u2013 E-Commerce para WordPress es vulnerable a la escalada de privilegios mediante el robo de cuentas en las versiones 2.0.0 a 2.6.0. Esto se debe a que el complemento no valida correctamente la identidad del usuario antes de actualizar sus datos, como el correo electr\u00f3nico y la contrase\u00f1a, mediante la funci\u00f3n update(). Esto permite que atacantes autenticados, con acceso de suscriptor o superior, cambien las contrase\u00f1as de usuarios arbitrarios, incluyendo las de administradores, y aprovechen esta situaci\u00f3n para acceder a sus cuentas."
