What to do

  1. Update to the latest version (1.1.5). Anything older than 1.1.5 has at least one known issue listed below. Dashboard → Updates, or Plugins → “update now”.
  2. If you cannot update right away, deactivate it until you can.
  3. Turn on auto-updates for it: Plugins → “Enable auto-updates” on its row.
  4. If you ran a vulnerable version and something looks off (spam pages, strange admins, redirects), run the free scan.

With WP-CLI: wp plugin get filter-gallery --field=version shows what you run; wp plugin update filter-gallery updates it.

Missing authorization check in Filter Gallery (1.1.4 and older)

Details from the advisory

The Filter Gallery plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 1.1.4. 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 subscriber-level access and above, to delete any arbitrary Filter Gallery records — including all associated filters, image mappings, settings, and details options — by supplying attacker-controlled gallery IDs. The nonce bypass requires omitting the nonce POST field entirely rather than submitting an invalid value, as a present-but-invalid nonce is correctly rejected.

The Filter Gallery plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 1.1.4. 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 subscriber-level access and above, to overwrite the title and content of arbitrary WordPress posts, write the _wp_attachment_image_alt meta key on arbitrary posts, and create or overwrite arbitrary ufg_gallery_* options.

Range from
CVE record (the advisory publisher) · score by CISA ADP
Details from the advisory

The Filter Gallery WordPress plugin before 1.1.5 does not verify the nonce on several of its AJAX handlers when the nonce field is omitted, and applies no capability check, allowing low-privileged users to overwrite the content of arbitrary posts and delete the Filter Gallery WordPress plugin before 1.1.5's stored gallery options.
