Until a fix is available, restrict the 'stats' capability to trusted roles only, or disable the plugin if feasible to prevent exploitation. Monitor for updates from the vendor regarding an official fix.

Description

The WP ULike plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in all versions up to, and including, 4.8.3.1. This is due to the `wp_ulike_delete_history_api` AJAX action not verifying that the log entry being deleted belongs to the current user. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above (granted the 'stats' capability is assigned to their role), to delete arbitrary log entries belonging to other users via the 'id' parameter.
