DescriptionCVE.org

Missing Authorization vulnerability in Maciej Bis Permalink Manager Lite permalink-manager allows Exploiting Incorrectly Configured Access Control Security Levels.This issue affects Permalink Manager Lite: from n/a through < 2.5.3.

AnalysisAI

Permalink Manager Lite versions prior to 2.5.3 lack proper authorization controls, allowing unauthenticated remote attackers to modify content through incorrectly configured access restrictions. This missing authorization check enables attackers to alter data without authentication, affecting the integrity of managed permalinks. No patch is currently available for this vulnerability.

Technical ContextAI

Permalink Manager Lite is a WordPress plugin that manages URL structure and permalink configurations for WordPress sites. The vulnerability stems from CWE-862 (Missing Authorization), a common class of access control failures where the application fails to properly verify user permissions before allowing sensitive operations. The plugin's permalink modification functionality does not properly validate that the requesting user has the necessary administrative capabilities before processing changes to permalink settings and configurations. This is rooted in the WordPress REST API or admin action handlers not implementing proper capability checks (such as requiring 'manage_options' capability), allowing any network user to craft HTTP requests that directly invoke permalink alteration functions without authentication or authorization verification.

RemediationAI

Immediately upgrade Permalink Manager Lite to version 2.5.3 or later, which contains the authorization fix. This can be done via the WordPress plugin update interface (WordPress Admin Dashboard > Plugins > Updates) or by downloading the patched version from the official WordPress.org plugin repository. If immediate patching is not possible, temporarily disable the Permalink Manager Lite plugin or restrict administrative access to WordPress via IP whitelisting, Web Application Firewall (WAF) rules blocking unauthorized REST API or admin-ajax requests to permalink-related endpoints, and removal of the plugin if it is not actively required. Additionally, audit permalink settings and configurations to detect any unauthorized changes that may have occurred while the vulnerability was active.
