Until an official fix is released, administrators should exercise caution when clicking on links or performing bulk actions in the Affiliates Manager plugin. Monitoring for updates from the plugin vendor or WordPress security advisories is recommended.
Description
The Affiliates Manager plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 2.9.34. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the process_bulk_action function in ListAffiliatesTable.php. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to delete affiliates via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
