Description
The Page Builder: Pagelayer – Drag and Drop website builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 1.7.7. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the pagelayer_load_plugin function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to disable the "getting started" promo via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
