Access violation vulnerability in UpdraftPlus WordPress Backup Plugin 1.23.2

The UpdraftPlus plugin for WordPress has a security issue that could allow people with access to the website to do more than they are supposed to. It affects versions 1.22.14 to 1.23.2 of the free version and 2.22.14 to 2.23.2 of the premium version. This is called privilege escalation and it allows people with at least subscriber-level permissions to change the plugin’s settings in a way that could allow them to perform administrator-level actions.
