What the vulnerability does
The Inspiro theme for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 2.1.2. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the inspiro_install_plugin() function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to install plugins from the repository via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
Explanation of Vulnerability in Simple Terms
Inspiro versions up to 2.1.2 contain a cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability that allows attackers to trick site administrators into performing unintended actions. An attacker can craft a malicious link or page that, when visited by an authenticated admin, executes unwanted operations without their knowledge. This can lead to unauthorized changes or deletion of site content and settings.
What an attacker can do
Trick an admin into performing unintended actions like modifying settings or deleting content without their knowledge.
Potential impact on your site
Unauthorized changes to site settings, content deletion, or other admin actions performed without your consent.
Conditions required to exploit
