Technical details
The Avada Custom Branding plugin (also known as Fusion White Label Branding) for WordPress is vulnerable to broken access control due to missing authorization checks (CWE-862). An attacker with a minimum of Contributor-level privileges can exploit this flaw over the network without user interaction. This allows the attacker to execute functions or access data that should be restricted to higher-privileged users, such as administrators. As of the advisory date, no official patch has been released for versions 1.2 and below.
