DescriptionCVE.org

The Kirki - Freeform Page Builder, Website Builder & Customizer plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 6.1.1. This is due to the plugin not properly verifying that a user is authorized to perform an action. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with custom-level access and above, to read arbitrary user metadata and sensitive user record fields - including email address, assigned roles, registration date, and any user_meta values - belonging to any WordPress user including administrators, by supplying a target user ID with a user-type context to the frontend collection endpoint.

The flaw is rooted in the plugin's frontend collection REST endpoint failing to verify that the requesting user is authorized to retrieve records for the specified target user ID. …
