What is CVE-2023-3198?

The MStore API plugin for WordPress suffers from a Cross-Site Request Forgery vulnerability due to inadequate nonce validation in the mstore_update_status_order_message function. This flaw enables unauthenticated attackers to manipulate order status messages by sending forged requests if they can deceive a site administrator into engaging in a harmful action, such as clicking on a malicious link. It's crucial to implement nonce checks to mitigate this vulnerability and protect site integrity.

Affected Version(s)
