Until an official fix is released, administrators should exercise caution with links and requests related to the Add User Meta plugin, especially on the 'add-user-meta' page. Monitoring for updates from the plugin vendor or WordPress security advisories is recommended.
Description
The Add User Meta plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.1. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the 'add-user-meta' page. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to update settings and 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.
