Unauthenticated data modification via missing capability checks
Published Jun 9, 2024 · Updated Apr 28, 2026
Missing authorization in ReviewX Team EmbedPress 3.9.11 and earlier allows remote attackers to modify data sources without authentication. The delete_source_data and save_source_data functions accept requests without a capability check and write or delete stored source records. No account or user interaction is required; the documented consequence is limited to unauthorized modification or deletion of EmbedPress data sources.
