Missing Authorization vulnerability in VeronaLabs WP SMS wp-sms.This issue affects WP SMS: from n/a through <= 7.0.1.
AnalysisAI
Missing authorization in WP SMS plugin for WordPress up to 7.0.1 allows authenticated attackers to modify SMS settings and message content. This could alter notification behavior or enable limited service disruption, but the impact is moderate and requires low-privilege authentication. No active exploitation or public exploit code has been reported, and EPSS indicates very low exploitation probability.
Technical ContextAI
The vulnerability is rooted in a missing authorization check (CWE-862) within the WP SMS plugin, a WordPress extension handling SMS functionality. The plugin fails to validate user capabilities when processing requests to certain endpoints, likely AJAX or REST APIs, allowing low-privilege authenticated users (e.g., subscribers) to perform actions intended only for administrators. The affected software, identified as the WP SMS plugin by VeronaLabs, is written in PHP and integrates with the WordPress platform.
Affected ProductsAI
WP SMS (WordPress plugin) versions up to and including 7.0.1 are affected. The vendor advisory is available via Patchstack at https://patchstack.com/database/Wordpress/Plugin/wp-sms/vulnerability/wordpress-wp-sms-plugin-7-0-1-broken-access-control-vulnerability?_s_id=cve.
RemediationAI
Upgrade WP SMS to a version beyond 7.0.1 if a patched release is available. Monitor the vendor's changelog or the Patchstack advisory for the exact fixed version. As a temporary workaround, restrict access to WP SMS administrative pages by adjusting WordPress capabilities so that only trusted roles (e.g., administrators) can modify plugin settings, though this may affect legitimate workflows. No specific configuration changes can fully mitigate the issue without a code fix.
