Merge + Minify + Refresh <= 1.10.7 - Cross-Site Request Forgery leading to Arbitrary File Deletion and Site Reset
Strategic Overview
< 1.10.8N/AVulnerability Overview
The Merge + Minify + Refresh plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in versions up to, and including, 1.10.7. This is due to missing nonce validation in the plugin. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to exploit path traversal vulnerabilities via forged request granted they can trick any logged-in site user into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
Technical Analysis
REMEDIATION: Update to version 1.10.8, 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.
