Description
The WP CTA – Call To Action Plugin, Sticky CTA, Sticky Buttons plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the 'update_cta_status' and 'change_sticky_sidebar_name' functions in all versions up to, and including, 1.7.0. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to update the status of a sticky and update the name displayed in the back-end WP CTA Dashboard.
