WP Table Builder – Drag & Drop Table Builder vulnerability

What happened

The WP Table Builder – Drag & Drop Table Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Incorrect Authorization in all versions up to, and including, 2.2.1. This is due to an operator precedence bug in the post-type guard within the trash_table_bulk() and restore_table_bulk() functions that causes the guard to never fire, combined with a permission callback that only verifies plugin role membership without per-post-type or ownership checks. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to trash or restore any post, page, or custom post type on the site by supplying arbitrary post IDs.

Affected versions

WP Table Builder – Drag & Drop Table Builder: 0 through 2.2.1 (semver) Fixed: See vendor advisory.
