WordPress · Simple:Press Forum Plugin · CVE-2024-13518
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Simple:Press Forum plugin for WordPress versions prior to 6.10.12
**Description**
The issue is related to Cross-Site Request Forgery due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the `sp save edited post` function. This allows unauthenticated attackers to modify a forum post via a forged request if they can trick a site administrator into performing a specific action.
**Recommendations**
For versions prior to 6.10.12, update to version 6.10.12 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the `sp save edited post` function to minimize the risk of exploitation.
