CVE-2024-1803
The EmbedPress plugin versions up to and including 3.9.12 contains an authorization flaw in the PDF embed block that allows authenticated contributors and higher-privileged users to embed PDF blocks without proper permission validation. An attacker with contributor-level access or above could exploit this weakness to embed PDFs, potentially bypassing intended content restrictions. The vulnerability was remedied in version 3.9.13.
