Perfect Survey <= 1.5.2 - Cross-Site Request Forgery

Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF)

CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H

CVE	CVE-2021-24763
CVSS	High (8.8)
Publicly Published	October 5, 2021
Last Updated	January 22, 2024
Researcher	apple502j

Description

The Perfect Survey WordPress plugin before 1.5.2 does not have proper authorisation nor CSRF checks in the save_global_setting AJAX action, allowing unauthenticated users to edit surveys and modify settings. Given the lack of sanitisation and escaping in the settings, this could also lead to a Stored Cross-Site Scripting issue which will be executed in the context of a user viewing any survey
