Vulnerability Overview

The Support Board WordPress plugin before 3.3.6 does not have any CSRF checks in actions handled by the include/ajax.php file, which could allow attackers to make logged in users do unwanted actions. For example, make an admin delete arbitrary files

Technical Analysis

REMEDIATION: Update to version 3.3.6, 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.
