Until an official fix is released, restrict subscriber-level user access and monitor for suspicious password reset activities. Avoid granting unnecessary privileges to low-level users.
Description
The Service Finder Bookings plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to privilege escalation via account takeover in all versions up to, and including, 6.0. This is due to the plugin not properly validating a user's identity prior to processing a password change request. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with subscriber access or higher to reset other users' passwords, including those of admins.
