The Relevanssi – A Better Search plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the relevanssi_update_counts() function in all versions up to, and including, 4.22.1. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to execute expensive queries on the application that could lead into DOS.
