Subscriber-level cache clearing via missing capability check
Published Jan 30, 2025 · Updated Apr 8, 2026
Missing authorization in zStore Manager Basic 3.311 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to clear the plugin cache. The zstore_clear_cache() function performs the cache-clearing operation without checking whether the caller has the required WordPress capability. Any account with Subscriber-level access can invoke the function, causing unauthorized loss of cached data but no reported disclosure or code execution.
