MC4WP: Mailchimp for WordPress <= 4.8.4 - Cross-Site Request Forgery
Strategic Overview
<= 4.8.4N/AVulnerability Overview
The MC4WP: Mailchimp for WordPress for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in versions up to, and including, 4.8.4. This is due to missing nonce validation on the 'listen_for_actions' function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to dismiss notices and delete log files 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 4.8.5, 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.
