Summary
The Easy Theme Options plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Missing Authorization in all versions up to, and including, 1.0. This is due to missing authorization checks in the eto_import_settings function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to import arbitrary plugin settings via the 'eto_import_settings' parameter.
