Input validation vulnerability in WordPress File Upload 4.24.0

The WordPress File Upload (WFU) plugin is a program for WordPress websites that allows users to upload files directly from the website. Unfortunately, all versions of the plugin up to and including 4.24.0 are vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF). This means that unauthenticated attackers can exploit this vulnerability to save shortcodes without the website administrator or editor’s knowledge, simply by tricking them into clicking on a link. To protect against this, websites should update the plugin to the latest version that includes nonce validation on the wfu_ajax_action_save_shortcode function.
