Contributor Broken Access Control in uListing <= 2.2.0 versions.

AnalysisAI

Broken access control in the uListing WordPress plugin (versions <= 2.2.0) allows authenticated users holding the Contributor role to perform privileged actions beyond their authorization level, resulting in unauthorized data modification. The flaw stems from missing authorization checks (CWE-862), confirmed by Patchstack, with a CVSS 3.1 score of 4.3. No active exploitation has been identified, but the low attack complexity and network accessibility make this a realistic lateral-privilege risk on affected WordPress installations running the plugin.

Technical ContextAI

uListing is a WordPress listing directory plugin developed by StyleMix (CPE: cpe:2.3:a:stylemix:ulisting:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*). The root cause is CWE-862 (Missing Authorization): specific plugin functionality fails to verify whether the currently authenticated WordPress user possesses sufficient capabilities before executing privileged operations. WordPress Contributor accounts are low-trust by design - they can submit but not publish content - so bypassing authorization checks at this role level allows privilege escalation within the application's data plane without compromising the broader WordPress installation scope.

RemediationAI

Update the uListing plugin to a version beyond 2.2.0 once a patched release is published by StyleMix - verify the current latest version in the WordPress plugin repository against the Patchstack advisory at https://patchstack.com/database/wordpress/plugin/ulisting/vulnerability/wordpress-ulisting-plugin-2-2-0-broken-access-control-vulnerability. A vendor-released patch version has not been independently confirmed from the available data. As a compensating control until a patch is applied, restrict the ability for untrusted users to self-register or be assigned the Contributor role on affected WordPress installations; this eliminates the PR:L prerequisite and prevents unauthenticated or low-trust external attackers from reaching the vulnerable endpoint. Disabling open user registration (Settings > General > Anyone can register) is a low-risk mitigation with no impact on existing authenticated workflows.
