Summary

The GD Star Rating plugin version 19.22 for WordPress is susceptible to multiple cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerabilities. These vulnerabilities enable remote attackers to hijack administrator authentication, potentially allowing malicious actions like SQL injection attacks via the 's' parameter on the gd-star-rating-stats page in wp-admin/admin.php, or executing cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks through other unspecified vectors. This poses a significant risk to WordPress sites using this plugin, making it crucial for site administrators to prioritize patched updates to safeguard against exploitation.
