CVE-2024-12006

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions W3 Total Cache plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 2.8.1

Description The issue allows unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on several functions. This enables unauthenticated attackers to deactivate the plugin, as well as activate and deactivate plugin extensions.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 2.8.1, update to a version later than 2.8.1 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the plugin's functions to prevent unauthorized modification until a patch is available.
