Description
The Falang multilanguage plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in versions up to, and including, 1.3.51. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the handle_strings_actions() function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to perform string actions via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
