WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities

Button Generator < 2.3.9 - Button Counter Reset via CSRF

Description

The plugin is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery due to missing nonce validation on the btg_count() function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to reset the button counter via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
