Featured Image from URL (FIFU) Free & Premium - Administrator Account Creation via CSRF
Description
The plugins do not correctly enforce the REST API nonce, disabling the check for the whole request when a crafted URL is used, which could allow attackers to make a logged-in administrator perform any REST API action, such as creating a new administrator account, via a CSRF attack.
