Summary
The Widget Options – The #1 WordPress Widget & Block Control Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Remote Code Execution in all versions up to, and including, 4.0.7 via the display logic functionality that extends several page builders. This is due to the plugin allowing users to supply input that will be passed through eval() without any filtering or capability checks. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to execute code on the server. Special note: We suggested the vendor implement an allowlist of functions and limit the ability to execute commands to just administrators, however, they did not take our advice. We are considering this patched, however, we believe it could still be further hardened and there may be residual risk with how the issue is currently patched.

Esto se debe a que el complemento permite a los usuarios proporcionar informaci\u00f3n que se pasar\u00e1 a trav\u00e9s de eval() sin ning\u00fan filtro ni comprobaciones de capacidad. Esto hace posible que los atacantes autenticados, con acceso de nivel de colaborador y superior, ejecuten c\u00f3digo en el servidor. Nota especial: sugerimos al proveedor implementar una lista de funciones permitidas y limitar la capacidad de ejecutar comandos solo a los administradores, sin embargo, no siguieron nuestro consejo. Estamos considerando la posibilidad de parchear esto, sin embargo, creemos que a\u00fan se podr\u00eda endurecer a\u00fan m\u00e1s y puede haber un riesgo residual con la forma en que se ha parcheado el problema actualmente."
