What is CVE-2024-10861?

The Popup Box – Create Countdown, Coupon, Video, Contact Form Popups plugin for WordPress has a design flaw that results in unauthorized modification of critical plugin settings. The vulnerability arises from a lack of proper capability checks in the deactivate_plugin_option() function. As a result, attackers who do not possess authentication can exploit this flaw to manipulate the 'ays_pb_upgrade_plugin' option, potentially leading to arbitrary changes in the plugin's configuration and behavior across all versions up to and including 4.9.7.
