AI-suggested

Until an official fix is available, administrators should exercise caution with links and requests related to the WP Social AutoConnect plugin and consider disabling or restricting the plugin if possible to reduce risk.

Description

The WP Social AutoConnect plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 4.6.2. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on a function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject malicious web scripts via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
