Description

The Directorist plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized access of data due to a missing capability check on the AJAX handler that renders listing meta fields in all versions up to, and including, 8.10.7. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to retrieve the edit-form field data of arbitrary listings they are not permitted to edit by supplying a listing_id.
