Description
The Accessiy By CodeConfig Accessibility plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized page creation due to missing authorization checks in versions up to, and including, 1.0.0. This is due to the plugin not performing capability checks in the `Settings::createPage()` function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to create arbitrary published pages on the site via the `ccpcaCreatePage` AJAX action.
