 "title": "BuddyPress Member Reviews <= 3.8.0 - Authenticated (Subscriber+) Missing Authorization to Review Submission Role Restriction Bypass",
 "description": "The BuddyPress Member Reviews plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized review submission in all versions up to, and including, 3.8.0 due to the submit-review handler not enforcing the Reviewer Roles and Reviewee Roles settings server-side, relying only on hiding the Add Review button. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with Subscriber-level access and above to submit reviews from a disallowed role or to members whose role is excluded from receiving reviews, and to post anonymous reviews even when Anonymous Reviews is disabled.",
