CVE-2024-39678

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Cooked versions up to, and including, 1.7.15.4

Description The Cooked plugin for WordPress is affected by a Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) issue due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the AJAX action handler. This could allow an attacker to trick users into performing unintended actions under their current authentication.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 1.7.15.4, upgrade to release version 1.8.0 to address the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the AJAX action handler until the upgrade is applied.
