What is CVE-2024-12545?

The Scratch & Win – Giveaways and Contests Plugin for WordPress contains a Cross-Site Request Forgery vulnerability found in all versions up to and including 2.7.1. The flaw stems from the exclusion of nonce validation in the reset_installation() function, allowing unauthenticated attackers to potentially reset the plugin's installation. This could occur if an attacker successfully deceives an administrator into executing an action, like clicking on a malicious link, thereby exploiting the vulnerability.

Affected Version(s)
