Source description from Wordfence Intelligence, credited to meghnine islem.
The WP JobHunt plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in all versions up to, and including, 7.2 via the cs_remove_profile_callback() function due to missing validation on a user controlled key.
