Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions The WordPress Header Builder Plugin – Pearl plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 1.3.8

Description The issue is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the stm header builder page, making it possible for unauthenticated attackers to delete arbitrary headers via a forged request. This can happen 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, 1.3.8, update to a version later than 1.3.8 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the stm header builder page to minimize the risk of exploitation.
