Description

The WordPress Ping Optimizer plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in versions up to, and including, 2.35.1.2.3. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the cbnetpoOptionsPg function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to update plugin settings, via forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link. CVE-2022-30705 appears to be a duplicate of this vulnerability.
