The InfusedWoo Pro plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation via Account Takeover in all versions up to, and including, 5.1.17. This is due to a missing capability check in the ajax_iwar_preview_email() function, which uses is_admin() as its only authorization check and allows low-privilege users to render email preview merge fields for an arbitrary email address. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to generate and retrieve a valid password reset link for any WordPress user, including administrators, enabling account takeover.
AnalysisAI
Privilege escalation via account takeover in InfusedWoo Pro (all versions up to and including 5.1.17) allows any authenticated subscriber-level user to hijack arbitrary WordPress accounts, including site administrators, by exploiting a missing capability check in the ajax_iwar_preview_email() AJAX function. The function incorrectly relies on is_admin() - a WordPress conditional that tests for admin-area request context rather than the requesting user's role - permitting low-privilege users to generate valid password reset links for any email address on the site. …
