AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
The Editor role provides basic non-administrative content privileges, so PR:L (not PR:H); remote, no interaction, and arbitrary PHP execution yields C/I/A:H.

The WP Coder WordPress plugin before 4.5.2 does not restrict access to its PHP code-execution feature to administrators, gating it on a content capability that the Editor role holds by default, which allows Editor-level users to save and execute arbitrary PHP code on the server and fully compromise the site.
AnalysisAI
Authenticated users holding the WordPress Editor role on sites running the WP Coder plugin (versions 4.0 up to but not including 4.5.2) can save and execute arbitrary PHP code on the server, resulting in full site compromise. The flaw is a privilege-boundary failure: the plugin gates its PHP code-execution feature on a content capability that the Editor role holds by default rather than restricting it to administrators, so no plugin misconfiguration is needed. …
