Description
The AppPresser – Mobile App Framework plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to privilege escalation via account takeover in all versions up to, and including, 4.4.6.

This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers, with knowledge of a user's email address, to reset the user's password and gain access to their account.
