What it is

The Hr Press Lite plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized access of sensitive employee data due to a missing capability check on the `hrp-fetch-employees` AJAX action in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.2. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to retrieve sensitive employee information including names, email addresses, phone numbers, salary/pay rates, employment dates, and employment status.
