Unauthorized administrative action via missing nonce validation
Published Apr 1, 2025 · Updated May 12, 2026
Cross-site request forgery in Preliot Cache control by Cacholong 5.4.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to trigger an unauthorized action. An unspecified state-changing function omits or incorrectly performs WordPress nonce validation, allowing a forged request to execute through an administrator's authenticated browser session. Successful exploitation requires an administrator to follow a malicious link or submit a crafted form; public sources do not identify the exact action or resulting configuration change.
