description

AutomatorWP Webhooks versions through 1.4.4 can allow unauthenticated changes to WordPress account passwords. An attacker may take control of affected accounts when an administrator has configured a webhook-triggered user update that accepts a password value from the webhook.

mitigation

Disable or redesign webhook-triggered user-update automations that accept password values from webhooks, and review privileged account passwords. Restrict public access to webhook endpoints until a vendor-fixed release is available.
