Input validation vulnerability in WordPress Comments Import & Export 2.3.5

The WordPress Comments Import & Export plugin for WordPress has a security issue that allows unauthorized individuals to perform actions on a website, up to and including version 2.3.5. This is because the do_export() function does not properly check for a security code called a “nonce”. This means that attackers can trick a site administrator into clicking a link that triggers an export without their knowledge.
