Input validation vulnerability in YouTube Playlist Player 4.6.4

The YouTube Playlist Player plugin for WordPress, up to version 4.6.4, is vulnerable to a type of cyber-attack called Cross-Site Request Forgery. This is because the plugin’s ytpp_settings function does not validate nonce (a piece of data used to authenticate a user). This means that an attacker who can convince a site administrator to click on a link can change the plugin’s settings without being authenticated.
