Technical details
The Frontend Admin by DynamiApps plugin (also known as acf-frontend-form-element) fails to implement proper authorization checks (CWE-862) in its AJAX handlers for taxonomy management. Specifically, the 'acf/fields/related_terms/add_term', 'frontend_admin/form_submit', and 'frontend_admin/delete_object' actions do not verify if the requesting user has the 'manage_categories', 'edit_term', or 'delete_term' capabilities. An authenticated attacker with Subscriber-level privileges can exploit this by sending crafted POST requests to 'admin-ajax.php' with a valid ACF nonce to create, modify, or delete arbitrary taxonomy terms (categories, tags, etc.). This issue is resolved in version 3.29.7.
