What the vulnerability does
01Description
The Zoho Flow plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in versions up to, and including, 2.14.1. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the zoho_flow_deactivate_plugin function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to modify typography settings via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
