## Affected

- RiceTheme Felan Framework: through 1.1.4

## Description

The Felan Framework plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the 'process_plugin_actions' function called via an AJAX action in versions up to, and including, 1.1.4. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to activate or deactivate arbitrary plugins.
