Description
The Simple User Capabilities plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the 'wp_ajax_nopriv_reset_capability' AJAX endpoint in all versions up to, and including, 1.0. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to reset any user's capabilities.
