The WPeMatico RSS Feed Fetcher plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data that can lead to privilege escalation due to a missing capability check on the wpematicoimportsettings function in all versions up to, and including, 2.8.24. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to update arbitrary options on the WordPress site. This can be leveraged to update the default role for registration to administrator and enable user registration for attackers to gain administrative user access.

The WPeMatico RSS Feed Fetcher WordPress plugin before 2.8.26 does not sanitise and escape one of its campaign configuration fields when a certain feature is enabled, which allows users with the Contributor role and above to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks that execute in the session of any higher-privileged user who later views the campaign.
