Description

The Easy Digital Downloads plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized access via the 'edd_send_test_email_summary' AJAX action in all versions up to, and including, 3.7.1.1, due to the send_test_email_summary() function continuing after its failed 'manage_shop_settings' capability check and having no nonce check. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to send the store's test Email Summary to its configured recipients as often as they like.
