Description
The WP Chat App plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized plugin installation due to a missing capability check on the ajax_install_plugin() function in all versions up to, and including, 3.6.8. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to install the filebird plugin.
