Description

The Photo Engine plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in versions up to, and including, 6.2.5. This is due to missing validation on a user controlled key within the ajax_generate_auth_token function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to generate authentication tokens on behalf of another user.
