- Published

- Severity
- High (CVSS 8.8)
- Type
- CWE-862 · Missing authorization
- Affected versions
- FleekDash V2 up to 2.6.2.2

- 2.6.2.5 and later
- Reported by
- maru finder, via Wordfence
What happened
The /wp-json/fleekdash/v1/register endpoint did not
verify that the caller was allowed to create or modify accounts.
A logged-in user with a low-privilege role (or anyone able to register)
could change the email and password of any other account, including
administrators.
What to do
- Open your WordPress admin and go to Dashboard → Updates (or Plugins).
- Update FleekDash to the latest stable version. The fix shipped in 2.6.2.5; every release after it is patched.
- If you were running 2.6.2.2 or older with open registration enabled, review your user list for accounts you don't recognize and reset admin passwords as a precaution.
