The Guest posting / Frontend Posting / Front Editor – WP Front User Submit plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the '/wp-json/bfe/v1/revert' REST API endpoint in all versions up to, and including, 5.0.0. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to delete arbitrary media attachments.
