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 subscriber-level access and above, to modify the plugin's site-wide font settings, including the typesquare_auth option (fontThemeUseType), show_post_form, and typesquare_fonttheme, by submitting a POST request to any wp-admin page. For fontThemeUseType values 1 and 3, no nonce verification is performed either, meaning those branches are additionally exploitable via cross-site request forgery."}], "metrics": {"cvssMetricV31": [{"source": "[email protected]", "type": "Primary", "cvssData": {"version": "3.1", "vectorString": "CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N", "baseScore": 4.3, "baseSeverity": "MEDIUM", "attackVector": "NETWORK", "attackComplexity": "LOW", "privilegesRequired": "LOW", "userInteraction": "NONE", "scope": "UNCHANGED", "confidentialityImpact": "NONE", "integrityImpact": "LOW", "availabilityImpact": "NONE"}, "exploitabilityScore": 2.8, "impactScore": 1.4}]}, "weaknesses": [{"source": "[email protected]", "type": "Primary", "description": [{"lang": "en", "value": "CWE-862"}]}], "references": [{"url": "https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/ts-webfonts-for-conoha/tags/2.0.4/inc/class/class.auth.php#L51", "source": "[email protected]"}, {"url": "https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/ts-webfonts-for-conoha/tags/2.0.4/typesquare-admin.php#L25", "source": "[email protected]"}, {"url": "https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/ts-webfonts-for-conoha/tags/2.0.4/typesquare-admin.php#L93", "source": "[email protected]"}, {"url": "https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/id/88002a25-6890-4f8b-8a11-239b59d56672?source=cve", "source": "[email protected]"}]}}
