What is CVE-2023-4792?
The Duplicate Post Page Menu & Custom Post Type plugin for WordPress has a security flaw that allows authenticated users, specifically subscribers and higher, to duplicate posts and pages without proper authorization. This issue arises from the absence of a capability check in the duplicate_ppmc_post_as_draft function, exposing sensitive content and allowing for potential misuse. Users are encouraged to update to patched versions to mitigate this risk.
