Description

The Snippet Shortcodes plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized Shortcode Deletion due to missing authorization in all versions up to, and including, 4.1.6.

This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to delete the plugin's Shortcodes.
