WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities

Plainview Protect Passwords <= 1.4 - Cross-Site Request Forgery

Description

The Plainview Protect Passwords plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in versions up to, and including, 1.4. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the admin_menu_settings() function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to modify the plugin's settings via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
