Vulnerability Overview

The Age Gate plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Open Redirects in versions up to, and including, 2.13.4 via the '_wp_http_referer' parameter. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to send users redirection links to hostile sites by using the website's address.

Technical Analysis

REMEDIATION: Update to version 2.13.5, or a newer patched version --- IDENTIFIER: CWE-601 (URL Redirection to Untrusted Site ('Open Redirect')) The web application accepts a user-controlled input that specifies a link to an external site, and uses that link in a redirect.
