## Description

The ShopEngine Gutenberg WooCommerce Builder Blocks Addon plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data in all versions up to, and including, 2.4.3 due to a missing capability check on the store_css AJAX function (gutenova_store_css action), which only verified a nonce exposed in the block editor. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to overwrite the gutenova_css and gutenova_font_link meta of arbitrary posts they are not permitted to edit, altering the styling of those posts.
