Subscriber-level access-control bypass via unchecked AJAX handler
Published Apr 17, 2024 · Updated Apr 28, 2026
Missing authorization in PalsCode Multi Currency For WooCommerce 1.5.5 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to perform unauthorized actions. The AddAdminAjaxAction() function accepts authenticated AJAX requests without checking the caller's WordPress capability. Subscriber-level access is sufficient; public records describe several unauthorized actions but do not identify the exact operations or resulting state changes.
