Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Remove Footer Credit WordPress plugin version 1.0.5 and earlier

Description The issue is related to the lack of a CSRF check when saving settings, which could allow an attacker to make logged-in admins change them. This also leads to a Stored XSS issue due to the lack of sanitization.

Recommendations For versions prior to 1.0.6, update to version 1.0.6 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the settings page to minimize the risk of exploitation.
