AI-Generated

The REST API Log plugin for WordPress versions prior to 1.7.1 is vulnerable due to inadequate token binding and lack of requester capability checks, enabling unauthenticated users to access and download sensitive logged data, including credentials and private content. This poses a significant risk of data exposure for WordPress sites utilizing this plugin. WordPress administrators and security teams should prioritize updating to the latest version to mitigate potential data breaches.

Original NVD Description

The REST API Log WordPress plugin before 1.7.1 does not bind the token protecting its log download feature to the log entry being requested, nor does it check the capability of the requester, allowing unauthenticated users in possession of any such token to download the logged REST API requests and responses of any entry, which may contain sensitive data such as credentials, authentication tokens or private content.
