Description

The Confection WordPress Cable plugin versions 0.4.0 through 0.4.7 lack capability and nonce checks when saving settings, allowing unauthenticated users to write arbitrary PHP code to a file that the plugin serves. This enables remote code execution on the server without authentication.
