Description

The CoDesigner plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized plugin installation via the setup wizard's install_plugins function in all versions up to, and including, 4.41. This is due to a missing capability check and missing nonce validation. The wizard's save handler runs on the wp_loaded hook for every request, whether or not the visitor is logged in. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to schedule the installation and activation of the EasyCommerce plugin from WordPress.org. The plugin slug is fixed.
