Description
The Photo Gallery plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized access of data due to a missing capability check on the check_score function called via an AJAX action in versions up to, and including, 1.8.15. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with minimal permissions such as a subscriber, to check page speed score.
