Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.66%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description
The WP Quick FrontEnd Editor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Setting Changs in versions up to, and including, 5.5. This is due to lacking both a security nonce and a capabilities check. This makes it possible for low-authenticated attackers to change plugin settings even when they do not have the capabilities to do so.
