AI-suggested
Upgrade WP Directory Kit to version 1.6.3 or later, where this vulnerability is fixed. No other mitigation is required as the fix addresses the root cause by restricting data access and enforcing authorization checks.
Description
WP Directory Kit versions before 1.6.3 contain a vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to access sensitive user information. The plugin's public directory-search action does not restrict which database models and columns it returns, nor does it verify authorization. This flaw exposes personal data such as email addresses, logins, and private contact-form submissions to unauthorized actors.
