What the vulnerability does
01Description
The Udimi Tools plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the `ajax_disconnect()` function in all versions up to, and including, 3.2. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to delete the plugin's six configuration options — including the API key, connected Udimi user email, and tracking-script payload — effectively disconnecting the site from the configured Udimi account. The companion `ajax_connect()` handler is missing the same checks, allowing the same low-privilege attackers to overwrite those options with an attacker-supplied API key.
Explanation of Vulnerability in Simple Terms
02Summary
Udimi Tools versions 3.2 and earlier lack proper authorization checks, allowing authenticated users to modify data they should not have access to. An attacker with a low-privilege account can change settings or content belonging to other users or the site itself. The vulnerability requires valid login credentials but no additional user interaction. Update to a version newer than 3.2.
