Executive Summary

This vulnerability is an Insecure Direct Object Reference (IDOR) flaw in the WP Project Manager WordPress plugin. It allows any authenticated user, including subscribers, to access another user's activity history, email address, and project details without proper authorization checks in a REST API route.

Detection Guidance

To detect this vulnerability, check if your WordPress site uses the WP Project Manager plugin versions 2.2.0 to 4.0.6. You can verify the plugin version in the WordPress admin panel under Plugins. Additionally, inspect REST API responses for user activity data to see if unauthorized users can access other users' details.

Impact Analysis

An attacker could exploit this to view sensitive information of other users, such as their email addresses and project details, even if they have no legitimate access. This could lead to privacy breaches or unauthorized data exposure.

Compliance Impact

This vulnerability could violate GDPR by exposing personal data without consent and HIPAA by leaking protected health information if project details include such data. It undermines data protection requirements for user privacy and access controls.

Mitigation Strategies

Immediately update the WP Project Manager plugin to version 4.0.7 or later. If updating is not possible, consider disabling the plugin until the update is applied. Review user permissions to ensure only authorized users can access sensitive data.
