    Added Translation Title: plugin de WordPress Bigfishgames Syndicate, Description: El plugin Bigfishgames Syndicate para WordPress es vulnerable a la falsificación de petición en sitios cruzados en todas las versiones hasta la 1.2, inclusive. Esto se debe a la validación de nonce faltante o incorrecta en la función bigfishgames_syndicate_submenu(). Esto hace posible que atacantes no autenticados restablezcan la configuración del plugin y las actualicen 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.
