Descriptions

The IP2Location Country Blocker WordPress plugin before 2.26.6 does not have CSRF check in the ip2location_country_blocker_save_rules AJAX action, allowing attackers to make a logged in admin block arbitrary country, or block all of them at once, preventing users from accessing the frontend.

El plugin IP2Location Country Blocker de WordPress versiones anteriores a 2.26.6, no presenta una comprobación de tipo CSRF en la acción AJAX ip2location_country_blocker_save_rules, lo que permite a atacantes hacer que un administrador registrado bloquee un país arbitrario, o que los bloquee todos a la vez, impidiendo que los usuarios accedan al frontend
