Action Type Old Value New Value Changed Translation Title: Theme Importer de steve-forster, Description: El plugin Theme Importer para WordPress es vulnerable a la falsificación de petición en sitios cruzados en todas las versiones hasta la 1.0, inclusive. Esto se debe a la falta de validación de nonce al procesar envíos de formularios en el archivo theme-importer.php. Esto hace posible que atacantes no autenticados desencadenen descargas de archivos arbitrarias y potencialmente ejecuten operaciones maliciosas a través de una petición falsificada, siempre que puedan engañar a un administrador del sitio para que realice una acción como hacer clic en un enlace.
