CVE-2025-4631
No known patch is available for this vulnerability.
The affected plugin has been removed from the WordPress.org directory (reason: Security Issue), and no patched version is being distributed through the official directory. If you have the affected software installed, you should uninstall or replace it rather than wait for an update.
Description
The Profitori plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation due to a missing capability check on the stocktend_object endpoint in versions 2.0.6.0 to 2.1.1.3. This makes it possible to trigger the save_object_as_user() function for objects whose '_datatype' is set to 'users',. This allows unauthenticated attackers to write arbitrary strings straight into the user’s wp_capabilities meta field, potentially elevating the privileges of an existing user account or a newly created one to that of an administrator.
