CVE-2022-4931: BackupWordPress <= 3.12 - Missing Authorization to Authenticated (Subscriber+) Information Disclosure — Wordfence Intelligence Community Edition

The BackupWordPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to information disclosure in versions up to, and including 3.12.

CVE-2021-4333: WP Statistics <= 13.1.1 - Cross-Site Request Forgery to Arbitrary Plugin Activation and Deactivation — Wordfence Intelligence Community Edition

The WP Statistics plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in versions up to, and including, 13.1.1.

This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to activate and deactivate arbitrary plugins, via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.

CVE-2021-4331: The Plus Addons for Elementor PRO <= 4.1.9 & The Plus Addons for Elementor <= 2.0.6 - Authenticated (Contributor+) Privilege Escalation — Wordfence Intelligence Community Edition

The Plus Addons for Elementor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to privilege escalation in versions up to, and including 4.1.9 (pro) and 2.0.6 (free). The plugin adds a registration form to the Elementor page builders functionality. As part of the registration form, users can choose which role to set as the default for users upon registration. This field is not hidden for lower-level users so any user with access to the Elementor page builder, such as contributors, can set the default role to administrator. Since contributors can not publish posts, only author+ users can elevate privileges without interaction via a site administrator (to approve a post).

The JetBackup – WP Backup, Migrate & Restore plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized back-up location changes in versions up to, and including 1.4.1 due to a lack of proper capability checking on the backup_guard_cloud_dropbox, backup_guard_cloud_gdrive, and backup_guard_cloud_oneDrive functions. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with minimal permissions, such as a subscriber to change to location of back-ups and potentially steal sensitive information from them.
