The Meks Video Importer plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized API key modification due to a missing capability check on the ajax_save_settings function in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.12.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.32%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
