Summary
The myCred – Points Management System For Gamification, Ranks, Badges, and Loyalty Program plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Missing Authorization in versions up to and including 2.9.7.

Risk Assessment
An attacker could manipulate the points and payment system, potentially leading to financial losses, data integrity breaches, and loss of user trust.
Recommendation
Update the myCred plugin to the latest patched version. Also add proper authorization checks.
