UiPress lite | Effortless custom dashboards, admin themes and pages vulnerability

What happened

The UiPress lite plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure in all versions up to, and including, 3.5.08. This is due to missing capability checks in the 'uip_process_block_query' AJAX function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to extract sensitive user data including password hashes, emails, and other user information that could be used for account takeover attacks.

Affected versions

UiPress lite | Effortless custom dashboards, admin themes and pages: 0 through 3.5.09 (semver) Fixed: See vendor advisory.
