## Affected

- Astoundify Jobify - Job Board WordPress Theme: through 4.2.7

## Description

The Jobify - Job Board WordPress Theme for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized access and modification of data due to a missing capability check on the 'download_image_via_ai' and 'generate_image_via_ai' functions in all versions up to, and including, 4.2.7.
