What is CVE-2023-2279?

The WP Directory Kit plugin for WordPress contains a vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to execute unauthorized actions through Cross-Site Request Forgery.

Initial patches addressed part of the issue in versions 1.2.0 and 1.2.1, but full resolution was achieved in version 1.2.2.
