Advisory
Source description from Wordfence Intelligence, credited to Krzysztof Zając.
The WP Customer Area plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized access of data due to a missing capability check on the ajax_load_address_from_owner() function in all versions up to, and including, 8.2.0. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with subscriber-level access and above, to retrieve other account's data.
