Summary
The Motors – Car Dealership & Classified Listings plugin for WordPress up to version 1.4.111 is vulnerable to authorization bypass. An authenticated attacker with subscriber-level access can mark or unmark any other user's car listing as sold by replaying a valid nonce from their own listing.
Risk Assessment
Attackers can tamper with the sold status of other users' listings without authorization, leading to fraud, loss of trust, and potential financial harm to sellers.
Recommendation
Immediately update the Motors – Car Dealership & Classified Listings plugin to the latest patched version. If no update is available, temporarily disable the plugin or restrict access to the mark-as-sold functionality.
Original NVD description (English source)
The Motors – Car Dealership & Classified Listings Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 1.4.111. This is due to the plugin not properly verifying that a user is authorized to perform an action. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to mark or unmark any other user's car listing as sold by replaying a valid nonce harvested from their own listing against an arbitrary victim post ID, triggering a site-wide 'Sold' badge on the victim's listing and silently stripping its special_car featured post meta as a side effect. Exploitation requires the attacker to hold an active listing of their own (obtainable by a Subscriber via the plugin's add-listing form) in order to harvest a valid nonce for the 'stm_mark_as_sold_car' action, which can then be replayed against any other listing's post ID.
