Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions The Quick Subscribe WordPress plugin versions 1.7.1 and earlier

Description The issue is related to the lack of a CSRF check when updating settings, which could allow attackers to make a logged-in admin change them via a CSRF attack. This also leads to Stored XSS due to the lack of sanitization and escaping in some settings.

Recommendations For The Quick Subscribe WordPress plugin versions 1.7.1 and earlier, update to a version that includes a CSRF check and proper sanitization and escaping of settings to prevent Stored XSS. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the settings update functionality to minimize the risk of exploitation.
