Description

The HUMN-1 AI Website Scanner & Human Certification by Winston AI plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the winston_disconnect() function in all versions up to, and including, 0.0.3. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to reset the plugin's API connection settings via the 'winston_disconnect' AJAX action.

Analysis

The HUMN-1 AI Website Scanner & Human Certification plugin for WordPress through version 0.0.3 fails to validate user permissions on the winston_disconnect AJAX function, allowing authenticated Subscriber-level users to disconnect the plugin's API credentials. This capability check bypass enables authenticated attackers to disrupt the plugin's functionality by resetting its API connection settings without proper authorization.
