Unauthenticated privileged actions via nonce-free AJAX requests
Published Dec 24, 2025 · Updated Dec 24, 2025
Missing authorization in WpStream 4.9.5 and earlier allows remote attackers to perform unauthorized actions through AJAX requests. The 4.9.6 changelog says nonce verification was added to AJAX requests, but public records identify neither the affected handler nor the resulting state change. No authentication or user interaction is required; the reported impact is limited to unauthorized modification, without disclosure or interruption.
