CVE-2024-11350
The AdForest theme for WordPress is vulnerable to privilege escalation via account takeover in all versions up to, and including, 5.1.6. This is due to the plugin not properly validating a user's identity prior to updating their password through the adforest_reset_password() function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to change arbitrary user's passwords, including administrators, and leverage that to gain access to their account.

"value": "El tema AdForest para WordPress es vulnerable a la escalada de privilegios mediante la apropiación de cuentas en todas las versiones hasta la 5.1.6 incluida. Esto se debe a que el complemento no valida correctamente la identidad de un usuario antes de actualizar su contraseña a través de la función adforest_reset_password(). Esto hace posible que atacantes no autenticados cambien las contraseñas de usuarios arbitrarios, incluidos los administradores, y aprovechen esa posibilidad para obtener acceso a sus cuentas."
