Description

The LWS Hide Login plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in versions up to, and including, 2.1.6. This is due to missing nonce validation on several of its functions such as lws_hl_create_page() and lws_hl_create_page_network(). This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to invoke this function and create plugin setting pages via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
