MAS Videos: Unauthorized deletion of other users' content
The MAS Videos WordPress plugin through 1.3.4 does not perform any capability or ownership check when handling its front-end video and playlist deletion requests, and the nonce it verifies is tied only to a static action rather than to the targeted object, allowing any authenticated user with a minimal role to permanently delete arbitrary posts, pages, attachments and other content belonging to other users. Other endpoint, parameter, role or implementation details not named in this export are not established by this record. Affected versions: at most 1.3.4.

This archive could not verify a fixed version because current official author release notes could not be retrieved or located. This archive's uncertainty does not establish that the vendor has not fixed the issue. Restrict or disable the affected feature where warranted and consult the author. Official notes: https://wordpress.org/plugins/masvideos/#developers. Enforce server-side caller, object and operation permissions at the disclosed trust boundary; do not treat knowledge of identifiers or a nonce as authorization.
No confirmed safe version is listed. Consider a vendor-supported patch or temporarily restricting the affected functionality while you assess the risk.
Deactivate only when warranted by your risk profile, or when advised by your hosting provider in the limited circumstances where the vulnerability cannot otherwise be mitigated. If you’re unsure which action is appropriate, contact Fused or your hosting provider for guidance.
