What is CVE-2023-1919?

The WP Fastest Cache plugin for WordPress is susceptible to Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) due to a lack of proper nonce validation in the wpfc_preload_single_save_settings_callback function. This enables attackers, without needing authentication, to manipulate cache-related settings by tricking site administrators into executing unintended actions through deceptive links. As a result, it poses a significant risk to site integrity and functionality.

Affected Version(s)

WP Fastest Cache * <= 1.1.2
