WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities

Automatic < 3.92.1 - Cross-Site Request Forgery to Privilege Escalation

Description

The Automatic plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in versions up to, and including, 3.92.0. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on a function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to escalate their privileges via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
