CVE-2024-13654Network attack vector

Subscriber-level service denial via unchecked option deletion

Published Feb 12, 2025 · Updated Apr 8, 2026

Missing authorization in ZoxPress 2.12.0 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to delete arbitrary WordPress option values. The reset_options function omits a capability check before processing a request that deletes the selected option from the site's configuration. Subscriber-level access is sufficient, and deleting a required option can trigger an error that denies service to legitimate visitors.
