## Affected

- n/a WP JobHunt: through 7.7

## Description

The WP JobHunt plugin for WordPress, used by the JobCareer theme, is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in all versions up to, and including, 7.7 via the 'cs_update_application_status_callback' due to missing validation on a user controlled key. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Candidate-level access and above, to send a site-generated email with injected HTML to any user.

## What to do

- Check your stack: if you ship or depend on n/a WP JobHunt, no fixed version is listed yet; follow the vendor advisory per the references below.
