DESCRIPTION:
Zhao Liang has discovered a vulnerability in the DVS Custom
Notification plugin for WordPress, which can be exploited by
malicious people to conduct cross-site request forgery attacks.
The application allows users to perform certain actions via HTTP
requests without performing any validity checks to verify the
requests. This can be exploited to e.g. change application settings
if a logged-in administrator visits a malicious web site.
Note: This further can be exploited to conduct script insertion
attacks.
The vulnerability is confirmed in version 1.0.1. Other versions may
also be affected.
SOLUTION:
No official solution is currently available.
PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
