Until an official fix is available, restrict subscriber-level access to trusted users only and monitor for suspicious activity related to subscriber management. Avoid importing subscriber data from untrusted sources to reduce risk of stored XSS exploitation.

Description

The Popup Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data and loss of data due to a missing capability check on all AJAX actions. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to perform multiple unauthorized actions, such as deleting subscribers, and importing subscribers to conduct stored cross-site scripting attacks.
