id: CVE-2020-36719

info:
  name: ListingPro < 2.6.1 - Arbitrary Plugin Installation/Activation/Deactivation
  author: ritikchaddha
  severity: critical
  description: |
    The ListingPro - WordPress Directory & Listing Theme for WordPress is vulnerable to Arbitrary Plugin Installation, Activation and Deactivation in versions before 2.6.1. This is due to a missing capability check on the lp_cc_addons_actions function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to arbitrarily install, activate and deactivate any plugin.
  impact: |
    Unauthenticated attackers can arbitrarily install, activate or deactivate plugins, potentially installing malicious plugins to gain complete site control.
  remediation: |
    Upgrade to ListingPro version 2.6.1 or later.
