Technical details

The SiteSkite WordPress plugin versions up to 2.1.7 fail to properly validate object ownership when contributors access resources via URL parameters, allowing IDOR attacks. An authenticated contributor can modify object IDs in requests to access data belonging to other contributors or users. The vulnerability requires authentication but can be exploited without user interaction, and a fix is available in version 2.1.8.
