Descriptions

The Autotitle for WordPress plugin through 1.0.3 does not have CSRF check in place when updating its settings, which could allow attackers to make a logged in admin change them via a CSRF attack.

El complemento Autotitle para WordPress hasta la versión 1.0.3 no tiene activada la verificación CSRF al actualizar su configuración, lo que podría permitir a los atacantes hacer que un administrador que haya iniciado sesión los cambie mediante un ataque CSRF.

The Autotitle for WordPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.3. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on an unknown function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to perform a settings update, and subsequently inject arbitrary web scripts, granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
