Widget reset via missing CSRF nonce
Published May 15, 2025 · Updated May 20, 2025
Cross-site request forgery in Justin Tadlock Widgets Reset 0.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to reset widgets via a forged request. The administrative settings handler accepts a widget-reset request and updates the site's widget configuration without validating a CSRF nonce. A logged-in administrator must be induced to submit the request, which can erase the site's configured widget placements.
