CRITICAL 9.8

WP JobHunt <= 7.1 - Unauthenticated Privilege Escalation via Password Reset/Account Takeover

CVSS Score
9.8
EPSS Score
0.0%
EPSS Percentile
0th

The WP JobHunt plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to privilege escalation via account takeover in all versions up to, and including, 6.9. This is due to the plugin not properly validating a user's identity prior to updating their password through the account_settings_save_callback() function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to change arbitrary user's passwords, including administrators, and leverage that to gain access to their account.
