Settings modification via missing save nonce validation
Published Jun 13, 2025 · Updated Apr 8, 2026
Cross-site request forgery in digitalacornjp WP2HTML 1.0.2 and earlier allows remote attackers to update plugin settings. The save() function accepts a settings-changing request without correctly validating a WordPress nonce tied to the administrator's session. Exploitation requires a logged-in site administrator to follow a crafted link or perform another attacker-induced action, and the documented consequence is unauthorized modification of plugin configuration.
