The Comment Images Reloaded plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized loss of data due to a missing capability check on the cir_delete_image AJAX action in all versions up to, and including, 2.2.1.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.40%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
