Subscriber-level disclosure via unauthorized log export
Published Sep 4, 2023 · Updated Apr 23, 2025
Incorrect authorization in Solwin Infotech User Activity Log before 1.6.6 allows remote authenticated users to export activity logs. The admin-post.php export route accepts the user_logs action from subscriber sessions without enforcing an export capability, returning CSV records containing email addresses. Any subscriber account is sufficient; successful exploitation discloses log data and PII without granting write access.
