Description
The Blog2Social: Social Media Auto Post & Scheduler plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the b2s_curation_draft AJAX action in all versions up to, and including, 8.7.4. The curationDraft() function only verifies current_user_can('read') without checking whether the user has edit_post permission for the target post. Combined with the plugin granting UI access and nonce exposure to all roles, this makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to overwrite the title and content of arbitrary posts and pages by supplying a target post ID via the 'b2s-draft-id' parameter.

AI Analysis

Impact

The Blog2Social plugin for WordPress permits an authenticated user with a Subscriber-level role to alter the title and content of any post or page. This occurs because the b2s_curation_draft AJAX action checks only that the user can read, without verifying that the user has edit permission for the target post. The plugin’s UI exposes a nonce that is available to all roles, enabling a legitimate user to send a crafted request that overwrites any post data, leading to unauthorized data modification or defacement.

Affected Systems

The vulnerability impacts the Blog2Social: Social Media Auto Post & Scheduler plugin for WordPress, versions up to and including 8.7.4. No further sub‑version details are provided, so any installation running a vulnerable release must be reviewed.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 6.5 indicates moderate severity. EPSS is less than 1%, so the likelihood of exploitation is currently low, and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. However, because an attacker only needs a default authenticated role, the risk is real for sites with many Subscriber users. An attacker could hijack multiple posts, spread malicious content, or tamper with site information.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade Blog2Social to a version newer than 8.7.4 that enforces edit_post permission on the b2s_curation_draft AJAX action.
  • If an update is not possible, modify the plugin to check for edit_post capability before allowing post modifications.
  • Restrict UI access and nonce exposure so that only users with appropriate editing rights can invoke the curation endpoint.
