What the vulnerability does
Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in POEditor plugin <= 0.9.4 versions.
Explanation of Vulnerability in Simple Terms
POEditor versions up to 0.9.4 are vulnerable to cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attacks. An attacker can craft a malicious webpage that, when visited by a logged-in POEditor user, performs unwanted actions on their behalf without their knowledge. The vulnerability requires user interaction—the victim must visit the attacker's page while authenticated to POEditor. This can result in unauthorized modifications or deletion of translation data.
What an attacker can do
Perform unwanted actions (modify or delete translations) on a POEditor account without the user's consent.
Potential impact on your site
Translation projects and data can be modified or deleted by attackers who trick authenticated users into visiting malicious pages.
Conditions required to exploit
Victim must be logged into POEditor and visit an attacker-controlled webpage.
