Can you explain this vulnerability to me?
The Lisfinity Core plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to privilege escalation because it assigns the editor role by default, which has limited capabilities but does not restrict API use. This flaw allows an attacker to leverage the vulnerability, especially when combined with CVE-2025-6038, to gain admin privileges.
How can this vulnerability impact me? :
This vulnerability can allow an attacker to escalate their privileges from an editor role to an administrator role, potentially giving them full control over the WordPress site, including the ability to modify content, settings, and user permissions.
