Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
From vendor dataUpdate the plugin to a version newer than 0.2.6 when available. As an interim measure, disable the plugin if not essential. The fix requires implementing proper nonce validation on all state-changing form submissions and AJAX requests within the plugin.
