CyberRota Analysis

AI-Generated

The WP Recipe Maker plugin for WordPress prior to version 10.8.2 is vulnerable due to a lack of authorization checks in a REST route, enabling unauthenticated users to write arbitrary data into any user's metadata. This can lead to account lockouts, including for administrators, effectively disrupting site functionality. WordPress site administrators and users of this plugin should prioritize applying the update to mitigate potential exploitation.

Original NVD Description

The WP Recipe Maker WordPress plugin before 10.8.2 does not have any authorisation check in one of its REST routes, nor does it bound what that route stores, allowing unauthenticated users to write unlimited data into any user's metadata and to permanently prevent that account, including an administrator's, from loading.
