Description

The Multi Page Auto Advance for Gravity Forms plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data via the 'aafg-notice-dismiss' AJAX action (aafg_ajax_fn_dismiss_notice function) in all versions up to, and including, 5.0.5, due to a missing capability check, missing nonce verification, and no allow-list of permitted notice IDs. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to set an arbitrary transient whose name they control to true for seven days, which can overwrite cached transients used by WordPress or other plugins.
