Researcher R3N0
Description

The SEO Redirection Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in versions up to, and including, 8.9. This is due to missing nonce validation in the option_page_history.php and option_page_404.php files. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to change 404 page settings and manage redirection history via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
