Descriptions

The wp-affiliate-platform WordPress plugin before 6.5.1 does not have CSRF check in some places, and is missing sanitisation as well as escaping, which could allow attackers to make non-logged in users execute an XSS payload via a CSRF attack

El complemento wp-affiliate-platform de WordPress anterior a 6.5.1 no tiene verificación CSRF en algunos lugares y le falta sanitización y escape, lo que podría permitir a los atacantes hacer que los usuarios que no han iniciado sesión ejecuten un payload XSS a través de un ataque CSRF.

The WP Affiliate Platform plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 6.5.0. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the 'info_update' functionality. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to update settings and inject malicious web scripts via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
