Advisory
Source description from Wordfence Intelligence, credited to Nguyen Xuan Chien.
The Ultimate Member plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in versions up to, and including, 2.6.0. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the duplicate_form function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to duplicate forms created with the plugin via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
