Am I affected?

JS Job Manager js-jobs

  1. Affected< 1.1.9
  2. Patched in1.1.9

Update to 1.1.9 or newer.

You are affected if you run < 1.1.9. Version 1.1.9 and later are not affected by this issue.

  • Check your version: in wp-admin go to Plugins → Installed Plugins and read the version under JS Job Manager.
  • No admin access? Run a passive check of your site. It reads public files only.
  • No account is needed to exploit this. Treat any exposed site on an affected version as at risk.

What to do

  1. Update to version 1.1.9, or a newer patched version
  2. Rotate administrator passwords and application secrets if the site ran a vulnerable version while publicly reachable.
  3. Watch JS Job Manager to get an email when the next vulnerability is published.

Advisory

Source description from Wordfence Intelligence, credited to spacehen.

The JS Job Manager plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass due to a missing capability check on the jsjobs_ajax function in versions before 1.1.9. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to arbitrarily install and activate plugins.
