Advisory

Source description from Wordfence Intelligence, credited to Rio Darmawan.

The cformsII plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in versions up to, and including, 15.0.4. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation in the 'cforms-options.php', 'cforms-global-settings.php', 'cforms-corrupted.php' files. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to update global settings and reset form data via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
