Vulnerability Overview

The Erident Custom Login & Dashboard plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in versions up to, and including, 3.4.1. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation in the 'erident-custom-login-and-dashboard/trunk/er-custom-login.php' file. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to modify the plugin's settings via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.

Technical Analysis

REMEDIATION: Update to version 3.5, or a newer patched version --- IDENTIFIER: CWE-352 (Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF)) The web application does not, or cannot, sufficiently verify whether a request was intentionally provided by the user who sent the request, which could have originated from an unauthorized actor.
