|
|
The WordPress WPLMS theme from version 1.5.2 to 1.8.4.1 allows an
|
|
authenticated user of any user level to set any system option due to a lack of
|
|
validation in the import_data function of /includes/func.php.
|
|
|
|
The module first changes the admin e-mail address to prevent any
|
|
notifications being sent to the actual administrator during the attack,
|
|
re-enables user registration in case it has been disabled and sets the default
|
|
role to be administrator. This will allow for the user to create a new account
|
|
with admin privileges via the default registration page found at
|
|
/wp-login.php?action=register.
