Droip WordPress plugin lets low‑level users change or delete content

CVE-2025-5835 · published 1 year ago
Summary

The Droip plugin for WordPress lets anyone with a basic Subscriber account run actions that should be restricted, such as deleting or creating posts, duplicating content, and altering settings. This happens because the plugin fails to check the user's permissions before performing these tasks. Update the plugin to the latest version or disable it until a fix is applied.

The Droip plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification and access of data due to a missing capability check on the droip_post_apis() function in all versions up to, and including, 2.2.6. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to perform many actions as the AJAX hooks to several functions. Some potential impacts include arbitrary post deletion, arbitrary post creation, post duplication, settings update, user manipulation, and much more.
