Can you explain this vulnerability to me?
This vulnerability exists in the GiveWP – Donation Plugin and Fundraising Platform for WordPress, where a missing capability check in the give_update_payment_status() function allows authenticated users with GiveWP Worker-level access or higher to modify donation statuses without proper authorization. This means these users can change donation statuses even though this ability is not available through the user interface.
How can this vulnerability impact me? :
The vulnerability allows certain authenticated users to update donation statuses without proper authorization, which could lead to unauthorized modification of donation data. This may result in inaccurate donation records, potential misuse of funds, or disruption of donation tracking and reporting.
