Unauthorized settings changes via missing CSRF token
Published Jun 15, 2026 · Updated Jun 15, 2026
Cross-site request forgery in Lazy Content Slider 3.4 allows attackers to alter plugin settings via an administrator’s browser. The administrative settings flow in lzcs_admin.php accepts lzcs_color and lzcs_count values from a POST request without a CSRF token. Exploitation requires an authenticated administrator to submit the malicious form; the demonstrated consequence is limited to changing plugin configuration.
