Published: Sat Jan 18 2025 (01/18/2025, 07:05:07 UTC)
Source: CVE Database V5
Vendor/Project: cmsmasters
Product: Buzz Club – Night Club, DJ and Music Festival Event WordPress Theme

Description

The Buzz Club – Night Club, DJ and Music Festival Event WordPress Theme theme for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data that can lead to a denial of service due to a missing capability check on the 'cmsmasters_hide_admin_notice' function in all versions up to, and including, 2.0.4. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to update option values to 'hide' on the WordPress site. This can be leveraged to update an option that would create an error on the site and deny service to legitimate users or be used to set some values to true such as registration.

Technical Analysis

The Buzz Club – Night Club, DJ and Music Festival Event WordPress Theme contains a missing authorization vulnerability (CWE-862) in the 'cmsmasters_hide_admin_notice' function. Authenticated users with low privileges (Subscriber and above) can update option values to 'hide' without proper capability checks. This unauthorized modification can cause site errors resulting in denial of service or alter site behavior by setting options like registration to true. The vulnerability affects all versions up to and including 2.0.4. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 4.3 (medium severity), indicating low complexity and no user interaction required for exploitation.

Potential Impact

An attacker with Subscriber-level access can exploit this vulnerability to modify option values improperly, potentially causing denial of service by triggering site errors or changing site settings such as enabling user registration. There is no impact on confidentiality or availability beyond denial of service, and no known exploits are reported in the wild.

Mitigation Recommendations

Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is available, restrict Subscriber-level access to trusted users only and monitor for unusual changes to site options related to 'cmsmasters_hide_admin_notice'.
