Description
The WP Abstracts plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in versions up to, and including, 2.6.2.

This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to invoke this function via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
