Settings changes via missing nonce validation
Published May 15, 2024 · Updated Mar 14, 2025
CSRF in Go Prayer WP Prayer 2.0.9 and earlier allows remote attackers to change plugin settings through a forged administrator request. The wpe_manage_settings page accepts settings updates without validating a WordPress nonce, so a cross-origin request can submit administrator-authorized changes. Exploitation requires a logged-in site administrator to perform an attacker-induced action, such as following a link; the demonstrated consequence is modification of plugin settings.
