Title
Staff Directory Plugin <= 3.6 - Cross-Site Request Forgery Bypass

This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the saveCustomFields() function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to save custom fields via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
Severity ?
4.3 (Medium)
CWE
- CWE-352 - Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF)
