Updated under an hour ago ()

Does this affect you?

It affects Unknown PuppyFW. Add what you run to find out whether that includes you.

No exploitation reported and no EPSS estimate yet.

The PuppyFW WordPress plugin through 0.4.4 does not have proper authorisation on one of its REST routes, which tests the caller against a capability taken from the request itself, allowing any authenticated user, including subscribers, to add, modify and delete arbitrary blog options and thereby escalate their privileges.
