Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Amministrazione Trasparente plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 7.1

Description The issue is related to Cross-Site Request Forgery due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the at save aturl meta() function. This allows unauthenticated attackers to update meta data via a forged request if they can trick a site administrator into performing an action, such as clicking on a link.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 7.1, consider disabling the at save aturl meta() function until a patch is available to prevent exploitation. Restrict access to meta data updates to minimize the risk of unauthorized changes.
