Settings reset via missing nonce verification
Published Apr 10, 2026 · Updated Apr 10, 2026
CSRF in Aruba HiSpeed Cache 3.0.4 and earlier allows remote attackers to reset plugin settings through an administrator's browser. The ahsc_ajax_reset_options() AJAX handler accepts a reset request without verifying a WordPress nonce and restores every option to its default value. Exploitation requires an authenticated site administrator to open an attacker-controlled link or page, and the documented consequence is configuration reset rather than code execution or data disclosure.
