Description

The WCFM – Frontend Manager for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference via the 'wcfm-products-manage' AJAX controller in all versions up to, and including, 6.8.1, due to missing validation on the user-controlled 'pro_id', variation ID and 'removed_variations' values: the handler only checks for a vendor or shop staff role and never verifies that the submitted product, variations or removed variations belong to the current vendor. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with vendor-level access and above to overwrite other vendors' products and variations, and to permanently delete arbitrary posts.
