Severity ?
4.3 (Medium) - CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N
Summary
The Simple:Press Forum plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 6.10.11. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the 'sp_save_edited_post' function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to modify a forum post via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
