Technical details
The Email Subscribers & Newsletters plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to a missing authorization check (CWE-862) in versions up to and including 5.9.27. The vulnerability exists because the plugin fails to properly verify user permissions before executing various administrative actions. An authenticated attacker with contributor-level privileges or higher can exploit this to overwrite mail settings (such as 'from' name and email), manage audience lists, create or modify newsletter broadcasts, and dispatch mass emails to arbitrary recipients. The issue is present across multiple components including the admin onboarding and workflow modules. Users should update to a version beyond 5.9.27 to mitigate these risks.
Affected products
