Description

The Smart WooCommerce Search plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification and loss of data due to missing capability checks on the duplicate() and remove() functions called via AJAX actions in versions up to, and including, 2.5.0. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to duplicate and delete widgets created by the plugin.
