Description
The WP Mail Log plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to an insufficient capability check on the check_permission() function in all versions up to, and including, 1.1.2. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to access REST routes that they should not have access to and delete data.
