CVE-2024-37118Network attack vector

License settings reset via missing nonce validation

Published Jun 21, 2024 · Updated Apr 28, 2026

Cross-site request forgery in Uncanny Automator Pro before 5.3.0.1 allows remote attackers to reset license settings via forged requests. A license-management function accepts the state-changing request without correct WordPress nonce validation. Exploitation requires a site administrator to interact with an attacker-controlled link or equivalent content, and the demonstrated consequence is loss of the stored license configuration.
