9th percentile - higher than 9% of all known CVEs

Summary

The MPCX Lightbox WordPress plugin 1.2.2 through 1.2.5 does not have any authorisation or authentication on one of its AJAX actions available to unauthenticated users, nor does it check the status of the requested post. This allows unauthenticated visitors to retrieve the title, content or excerpt of arbitrary posts, including private, draft, pending, trashed and password-protected ones.

Risk Assessment

An unauthenticated attacker can access post content that should not be publicly available, breaching data confidentiality and potentially exposing sensitive information.

Recommendation

Update the MPCX Lightbox plugin to a version later than 1.2.5. Until then, consider disabling the plugin.
