Source description from Wordfence Intelligence, credited to Dhabaleshwar Das.
The Internal Link Juicer: SEO Auto Linker for WordPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in versions up to, and including, 2.24.3. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the ilj_rebuild_index and ilj_render_batch_info functions. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to trigger these functions via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
