Missing Authorization vulnerability in Zara 4 Zara 4 Image Compression allows Exploiting Incorrectly Configured Access Control Security Levels. This issue affects Zara 4 Image Compression: from n/a through 1.2.17.2.
AnalysisAI
Missing authorization in Zara 4 Image Compression WordPress plugin up to version 1.2.17.2 allows authenticated attackers with low privileges to exploit incorrectly configured access controls, potentially causing limited denial of service. No public exploit or active exploitation has been identified, and the EPSS score is low (0.07%).
Technical ContextAI
The vulnerability is a missing authorization (CWE-862) in the Zara 4 Image Compression plugin for WordPress. The plugin likely fails to properly enforce access control checks on certain administrative actions, allowing users with low privileges (e.g., subscribers) to perform actions that should require higher permissions. The CVSS vector indicates network attack vector, low attack complexity, low privileges required, and no user interaction, with a low availability impact.
RemediationAI
Update the Zara 4 Image Compression plugin to version 1.2.17.3 or later, as per the vendor advisory. No workarounds are documented; however, restricting access to the plugin's settings pages via role management or using a security plugin to enforce proper capabilities may mitigate the risk until patching is possible.
