Technical details

The plugin's `six_storage_portal_registration()` AJAX handler lacks capability checks and nonce verification, allowing any authenticated subscriber to overwrite the site-wide `six_storage_online_api_url` option with an attacker-controlled URL. The `six_storage_create_wp_user()` handler then unconditionally calls `wp_set_current_user()` and `wp_set_auth_cookie()` with data from the attacker's URL, bypassing all credential verification. This is an incomplete fix of a prior vulnerability; attackers can exploit the chain in three AJAX requests to authenticate as any known administrator.
