Site-wide redirect modification via missing nonce validation
Published Dec 5, 2024 · Updated Apr 8, 2026
Cross-site request forgery in Simple Redirection 1.5 and earlier allows remote attackers to change redirect settings through a forged request. The settings_page() function accepts settings changes without correctly validating a WordPress nonce, causing attacker-supplied redirect values to be saved under an administrator's session. Exploitation requires an administrator to act on a malicious link or equivalent request, after which every site visitor can be redirected to an attacker-chosen URL.
