Description

The Freshdesk (official) plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in versions up to, and including, 2.3.6. This is due to missing nonce validation on the wo_ajax_wo30notice_dismiss, wo_ajax_regenerate_secret, wo_ajax_remove_client, & wo_ajax_users_type_ahead functions. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to modify 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.
