CVE-2024-10311: CMORILLAS1 External Database Based Actions

High severity, CVSS 8.8. EPSS: 0.4% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

The External Database Based Actions plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authentication bypass in versions up to, and including, 0.1. This is due to a missing capability check in the 'edba_admin_handle' function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level permissions and above, to update the plugin settings and log in as any existing user on the site, such as an administrator.
