Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Meks Video Importer plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 1.0.11

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 1.0.11, consider disabling the ajax save settings function until a patch is available to prevent unauthorized API key modification.
