CVE-2025-12070
Full vulnerability record from the local CVENow database.
Description
The ViaAds plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 2.1.2. This is due to missing nonce validation on the `ViaAds_pluginHandler` function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to modify the plugin's API key and cookie consent settings via a forged request granted they can trick an administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.

"value": "El plugin ViaAds para WordPress es vulnerable a Cross-Site Request Forgery en todas las versiones hasta la 2.1.1, inclusive. Esto se debe a la falta de validación de nonce en la función 'ViaAds_pluginHandler'. Esto hace posible que atacantes no autenticados modifiquen la clave API del plugin y la configuración de consentimiento de cookies a través de una petición falsificada, siempre que puedan engañar a un administrador para que realice una acción como hacer clic en un enlace."
