Description
The WP OAuth Server plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized loss of data due to a missing capability check on the wo_ajax_remove_client() function in versions up to, and including, 4.2.5. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with minimal permissions such as a subscriber to delete arbitrary clients.
