Description

The 6Storage Rentals plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Authentication Bypass leading to Administrator Account Takeover in all versions up to, and including, 2.31.0. The vulnerability exists because the `six_storage_portal_registration()` AJAX handler — registered on `wp_ajax_six_storage_portal_plugin_registration` — performs no capability check and no nonce verification before writing the caller-supplied `six_storage_online_api_url` POST parameter to the site-wide option of the same name; the unauthenticated `six_storage_create_wp_user()` handler then redeems a transient seeded from that attacker-controlled URL's response and unconditionally calls `wp_set_current_user()` and `wp_set_auth_cookie()` with no ownership or credential verification. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to authenticate as any existing WordPress user — including any administrator whose email address is known or guessable — resulting in full site compromise. This issue represents an incomplete fix for a prior vulnerability: the 2.29.0 remediation moved the target email out of POST data into a server-side transient, but because any Subscriber can still overwrite the outbound API URL that populates that transient, the full authentication bypass chain remains exploitable in three AJAX requests.
