Impact

WPZOOM Portfolio Lite before version 1.4.34 does not verify that a user is authorized to edit a post before changing its type and order, allowing users with the contributor role and above to hijack any other user’s posts or pages. This flaw, classified as CWE‑639, lets an attacker convert unrelated content into portfolio items, removing it from its original listings and URLs and potentially confusing site visitors by altering the public presentation.

Affected Systems

WordPress sites that have installed WPZOOM Portfolio Lite versions prior to 1.4.34 are affected. Any site using this plugin should check the installed version and verify that it is less than 1.4.34.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 4.9 indicates moderate severity, and the EPSS score is < 1%, suggesting a low exploitation probability. The issue is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. Based on the description, the likely attack vector is an authenticated request to the plugin’s edit endpoint, which the plugin fails to restrict by author or role. An attacker with contributor or higher privileges could exploit this IDOR to alter unrelated content.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade WPZOOM Portfolio Lite to version 1.4.34 or later, which patches the authorization check.
  • If an upgrade is not immediately possible, remove edit capabilities for contributor and above roles or block access to the plugin’s edit URLs using a role‑based restriction or custom code.
  • Monitor the site for unexpected changes in post/page types and verify that content has not been converted into portfolio items as a result of unauthorized edits.
