Descriptions

The Himer WordPress theme before 2.1.1 does not have CSRF checks in some places, which could allow attackers to make users join private groups via a CSRF attack

El tema Himer WordPress anterior a 2.1.1 no tiene comprobaciones CSRF en algunos lugares, lo que podrĂ­a permitir a los atacantes hacer que los usuarios se unan a grupos privados mediante un ataque CSRF.

The Himer theme for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 2.1.0. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the wpqa_join_group AJAX action. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to join private groups via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
