CryptoCloud Payment Gateway Missing Authorization Vulnerability Allowing Broken Access Control

A missing authorization vulnerability has been identified in the CryptoCloud - Crypto Payment Gateway WordPress plugin, affecting versions through 2.1.2. This vulnerability allows exploitation of incorrectly configured access control security levels, potentially leading to unauthorized actions by users with lower privileges.

Impact

Exploitation of this vulnerability could allow an unprivileged user to perform actions reserved for higher privileged users, due to the lack of proper authorization checks.

Remediation

Users are advised to remove and replace the CryptoCloud - Crypto Payment Gateway plugin, as it has not been updated in over a year and is unlikely to receive further support. Deactivating the plugin does not eliminate the security risk.
