Verse-O-Matic <= 4.1.1 - Cross-Site Request Forgery to Stored Cross-Site Scripting

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-2021-24466
CVSS	High (8.8)
Publicly Published	July 19, 2021
Last Updated	January 22, 2024
Researcher	Ajay Sandipan Thorbole

Description

The Verse-O-Matic WordPress plugin through 4.1.1 does not have any CSRF checks in place, allowing attackers to make logged in administrators do unwanted actions, such as add/edit/delete arbitrary verses and change the settings. Due to the lack of sanitisation in the settings and verses, this could also lead to Stored Cross-Site Scripting issues
