Taxonomy term manipulation via missing capability checks
Published Feb 5, 2024 · Updated Apr 8, 2026
Missing authorization in RealMag777 WOLF 1.0.8.1 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to alter WordPress taxonomy terms. The wpbe_create_new_term, wpbe_update_tax_term, and wpbe_delete_tax_term handlers perform term operations without checking user capabilities. Subscriber-level access is sufficient to create, modify, or delete taxonomy terms, affecting site data integrity and availability.
