Description
The MailOptin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass due to a missing capability check on the clear_optin_cache function in versions up to, and including, 1.2.49.0. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to clear the plugin's cache. Additionally, the function was also missing a nonce check.
