Description

The wpForo Forum plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in versions up to, and including, 2.2.8. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the logout() function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to log out other users via a forged request granted they can trick a site's user into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
