Description

The Better Font Awesome plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass due to a missing capability check on the save_options function in versions up to, and including, 2.0.1. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level permissions and above, to update the plugin's settings.
