Description
The LeadConnector plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification & loss of data due to a missing capability check on the lc_public_api_proxy() function in all versions up to, and including, 1.7. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to delete arbitrary posts. CVE-2024-34378 is likely a duplicate of this issue.
