The GoStats for WordPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 1.4. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the gostats manage() function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to update the plugin's settings (gostats siteid and gostats server options) via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
