Description

The Hitsteps Web Analytics plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in versions up to, and including, 5.86. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the hst_optionpage function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to change the plugin's settings via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
