Input validation vulnerability in AI ChatBot 4.7.8

  • Severity: medium-risk
  • Status: Fixed
  • Publication: October 3, 2023

The ChatBot plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to a type of security issue called Cross-Site Request Forgery. This issue affects versions up to, and including, 4.7.8. The problem is that the plugin does not validate nonce (a type of security code) in a particular function named qc_wp_latest_update_check. This lack of security makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to use a forged link to perform certain actions, such as tricking a site administrator into clicking it.
