Technical details

The Slider Revolution plugin for WordPress (versions 6.0.0-6.7.55 and 7.0.0-7.0.14) contains a missing authorization vulnerability (CWE-862). The plugin fails to properly verify user permissions before executing certain actions. An authenticated attacker with at least Contributor-level privileges can exploit this flaw to deactivate any active plugin on the WordPress installation. This is achieved via a network request to an affected endpoint that lacks sufficient capability checks. While the vulnerability does not directly allow for data exfiltration or remote code execution, it can be used to disable security plugins or disrupt site operations.
