Medium (5.4). EPSS 0.3% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
The Enable Media Replace plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to an improper capability check on the 'RemoveBackGroundViewController::load' function in all versions up to, and including, 4.1.7. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Author-level access and above, to replace any attachment with a removed background attachment.
