Published

The Hello Plus plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 1.7.7. This is due to the plugin not properly verifying that a user is authorized to perform an action. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to publish their own Hello+ header/footer templates and draft currently active templates owned by higher-privileged users.
