Medium 4.3
In plain English
A medium-severity cross-site request forgery in ZT Captcha from teamzt. There are no confirmed reports of exploitation so far. The chance it is exploited in the next 30 days is estimated at 0.2% (higher than 12% of all known vulnerabilities).
Official description
The ZT Captcha plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.4. This is due to improper nonce validation on the save_ztcpt_captcha_settings action where the nonce check can be bypassed by sending an empty token value. 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.
