Description

The SellKit plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized plugin installation and activation via the 'sellkit_install_woocommerce_plugin_by_notice' AJAX action in all versions up to, and including, 2.8.0. This is due to a missing capability check on the installer() function, which verifies only the 'sellkit_admin' nonce. That nonce is printed on every wp-admin page for any logged-in user. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to install and activate the WooCommerce plugin on the site.
