Overview

This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 4.3, rated MEDIUM. It can be exploited remotely over the network. Some level of privileges is required for exploitation.

Technical description

The DSGVO All in one for WP plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Missing Authorization in all versions up to and including 4.9. This is due to the dsgvo_reset_policy_service_func() function lacking both capability checks and nonce verification while processing user-supplied parameters to reset plugin options. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to reset all customized privacy policy content including cookie notices, Google Analytics policies, Facebook policies, and YouTube policies to their default values.

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories, patches, and mitigation guidance. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
