The WP Crowdfunding WordPress plugin before 2.2.1 does not check the campaign-submission capability in one of its AJAX actions, allowing any authenticated users such as Subscribers to create crowdfunding campaign posts despite not being granted that permission.
AnalysisAI
WP Crowdfunding WordPress plugin before version 2.2.1 allows any subscriber-level authenticated user to create crowdfunding campaign posts by exploiting a missing capability check in an AJAX action endpoint. The plugin fails to verify whether the requesting user holds the campaign-submission permission, allowing low-privilege WordPress roles to perform actions reserved for higher-privileged users. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires a valid WordPress account with at minimum Subscriber-level privileges - the lowest authenticated role. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 3.1 base score of 4.3 (Medium) with vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N correctly characterizes this as a low-complexity, network-accessible flaw requiring only a low-privilege account. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker registers a free Subscriber account on a target WordPress site (or reuses compromised credentials), then sends a crafted AJAX POST request directly to the wp-admin/admin-ajax.php endpoint targeting the vulnerable action, bypassing the campaign-submission permission check. Because the capability gate is missing, the server processes the request and creates a published crowdfunding campaign post under the attacker's account. … |
| Remediation | Update the WP Crowdfunding plugin to version 2.2.1 or later, which introduces the missing capability check in the affected AJAX action. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
