Descriptions

The Counter Box WordPress plugin before 1.2.1 is lacking CSRF check when activating and deactivating counters, which could allow attackers to make a logged in admin perform such actions via CSRF attacks

El plugin Counter Box de WordPress versiones anteriores a 1.2.1, carece de una comprobación de tipo CSRF cuando son activados y desactivados los contadores, lo que podría permitir a atacantes hacer que un administrador conectado lleve a cabo tales acciones por medio de ataques de tipo CSRF
