Auth bypass in Comesio Relevanssi – A Better Search
CVE-2024-1380
The Relevanssi – A Better Search plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized access of data due to a missing capability check on the relevanssi_export_log_check() function in all versions up to, and including, 4.22.0 (Free) and 2.25.0 (Premium). This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to export the query log data.
