Descriptions

The lacks CSRF checks allowing a user to invite any user to any group (including private groups)

The Himer theme for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 2.1.2. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the wpqa_add_group_user AJAX action. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to send user invites to private groups via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
