Summary
The Mail logging & Catcher plugin for WordPress in versions up to and including 2.2.0 is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure via the 'message' parameter. An authenticated attacker with subscriber-level access or above can extract valid administrator password-reset keys from stored email logs and complete the password-reset flow to escalate to administrator.
Risk Assessment
A low-privileged user can escalate privileges to administrator and take over the entire site. This requires the administrator to have previously configured log access for low-privilege roles.
Recommendation
Update the Mail logging & Catcher plugin to a version newer than 2.2.0 and ensure the default_view_role setting is 'manage_options'.

The Ultra Addons for Contact Form 7 plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file deletion due to insufficient file path validation in the _getObjAttr function in all versions up to, and including, 3.5.54. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to delete arbitrary files on the server, which can easily lead to remote code execution when the right file is deleted (such as wp-config.php). This requires the PDF Generator add-on to be active and a Contact Form 7 form to be configured for PDF generation.

Original NVD description (English source)
The Mail logging & Catcher plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure in all versions up to, and including, 2.2.0 via the 'message' parameter. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to extract valid administrator password-reset keys from stored email logs and complete the WordPress password-reset flow to escalate privileges to administrator. Exploitation requires an administrator to have previously configured the plugin's default_view_role setting to a capability held by low-privileged users such as 'read'; on an untouched install the default of 'manage_options' restricts log access to administrators only.
