Description

The TinyMCE Advanced plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in versions up to, and including, 4.1.9. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation for plugin options. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to reset the plugin settings via forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
