WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities
Anti-Spam: Spam Protection < 2025 - Multiple Administrative Actions via CSRF
Description
The plugin is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery due to missing or incorrect nonce validation in the 'ss_option_maint.php' and 'ss_user_filter_list' files. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to delete pending comments, and re-enable a previously blocked user via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
