Short explanation
The WP Photo Album Plus plugin before 9.2.09.002 lacks authorization checks during front-end uploads, allowing subscribers to upload files to other users' or admin-owned albums. Exploitation requires enabling the front-end upload feature. Patch status is UNKNOWN. No active exploitation or public exploit is reported.
This allows unauthorized access to private content and potential data compromise. It highlights a critical authorization gap in a widely used WordPress plugin, especially in environments with mixed user roles.
What should be done?
- Ensure the front-end user upload feature is disabled or configured with proper access controls
- Update to a version above 9.2.09.002 if a patch is available; otherwise, follow vendor advisories
The sources give limited detail on some technical conditions. Review the chain of evidence below before deciding how to act.
Chain of evidence and sources
WP Photo Album Plus plugin'ı 9.2.09.002 sürümünden önce, ön uç yükleme özelliği etkinleştirildiğinde, kullanıcıların (örneğin Subscriber) diğer kullanıcıların veya yöneticiye ait albümlere dosya yüklemesini izin verir. Bu, yükleme sırasında kullanıcıya ait albümde yükleme izni kontrolü eksikliğinden kaynaklanır.
İstismar, plugin yapılandırmasında ön uç kullanıcı yükleme özelliğinin açık olarak etkinleştirilmesiyle gerçekleşir ve varsayılan ayar değildir.
Kullanıcı tarafından paylaşılan istismar veya aktif istismar raporlanmamıştır. Yama durumu 'Bilinmeyen' çünkü üretici tarafından güvenilir bilgi yoktur.
Show the technical text from the sources
The WP Photo Album Plus WordPress plugin before 9.2.09.002 does not check that the current user is allowed to upload into the album they target when it processes a front-end upload, allowing any authenticated user, such as a Subscriber, to upload files into albums owned by other users or by the administrator. Exploitation requires the WP Photo Album Plus WordPress plugin before 9.2.09.002's front-end user upload feature to be enabled, which is not the default.
