WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities

Ultimate Dashboard < 3.8.15 - Cross-Site Request Forgery to Module Activation/Deactivation

Description

The Ultimate Dashboard plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 3.8.14. This is due to a flawed nonce validation conditional in the 'handle_module_actions' function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to toggle plugin modules on or off via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
