The Cool Author Box plugin for WordPress has a security issue. This means that versions up to and including 3.0.0 are not safe to use. The problem is that the hmcab_admin_settings() function does not properly check for a special code called a nonce. This allows people who are not authorized to change the plugin’s settings to do so by tricking a site administrator into clicking a link.
