Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Contact Form and Calls To Action by vcita plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 2.6.4

Description The issue is due to missing nonce validation in the vcita-callback.php file, making it possible for unauthenticated attackers to modify the plugin's settings and inject malicious JavaScript via a forged request. This can be achieved if an attacker can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 2.6.4, consider disabling the vcita-callback.php file or restricting access to it until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, restrict the ability to modify plugin settings to prevent potential exploitation.
