Description

The My Agile Privacy® plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability and nonce check in the save_custom_metabox_policies() function, which is hooked to save_post for the plugin's policy post type, in versions 3.1.0 up to, and including, 3.3.7. The plugin's periodic remote text sync runs during an ordinary front-end page load (wp_footer) and calls wp_update_post() on every synced policy, which runs this handler with the visitor's request data. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers whose request happens to trigger the sync to change the policies' _map_allow_sync setting, which stops automatic updates of the legal texts, and to write the translated policy text (_map_translations, filtered by wp_kses_post), which the same sync may overwrite.
