AI Analysis

Impact

A missing capability check in the add_images_to_gallery_callback function allows an authenticated WordPress user with Author level or higher to add images to any Modula gallery, regardless of ownership. The vulnerability lets the attacker insert or modify gallery content without permission, potentially damaging site aesthetics or distributing malicious media.

Affected Systems

All installations of the Modula Image Gallery – Photo Grid & Video Gallery plugin with version numbers up to and including 2.13.3 are affected. Users must verify their plugin version and upgrade if it falls within this range.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 4.3 indicates moderate severity, while the EPSS score of less than 1% suggests a low likelihood of exploitation. The vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. It can be exploited only by authenticated users with at least Author role, making it a local accounts‑based privilege issue rather than a remote code execution vector.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade the Modula Image Gallery plugin to the latest version (≥ 2.13.4) where the capability check is implemented.
  • If an upgrade is not immediately possible, temporarily disable the gallery feature that invokes add_images_to_gallery_callback or replace the plugin with a trusted alternative until a patch is available.
  • Re‑evaluate the permissions granted to Author‑level users and remove or restrict any capability that allows media uploads or gallery edits to limit the impact of the vulnerability.
