Technical details
The AWP Classifieds plugin for WordPress (versions up to and including 4.4.5) suffers from a Broken Access Control vulnerability (CWE-862). The flaw stems from missing authorization checks or incorrectly configured security levels within the plugin's functional logic. An unauthenticated remote attacker can exploit this to execute actions that should be restricted to higher-privileged users. While the CVSS vector indicates no direct impact on confidentiality, it confirms potential impacts on integrity and availability. The issue is resolved in version 4.4.6.
