Summary
  • (es) El complemento Display custom fields in the frontend – Post and User Profile Fields para WordPress es vulnerable a la inyección de código a través del código corto vg_display_data del complemento en todas las versiones hasta la 1.2.1 incluida, debido a una validación de entrada insuficiente y a la restricción de acceso a ese código corto. Esto hace posible que atacantes autenticados con permisos de nivel de colaborador y superiores llamen a funciones arbitrarias y ejecuten código.
