Description

The WP Customer Area plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the save_address_for_owner function in all versions up to, and including, 8.2.0. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to modify addresses for other owners.
