Webriti ElitePress theme: Cross-site request forgery
Summary
The ElitePress WordPress theme by Webriti, versions up to and including 3.2.1, contains a Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) flaw. An attacker can trick a logged-in user, for example an administrator or editor, into visiting a malicious page that performs unintended actions on the site, such as changing settings or passwords. No account is needed for the attacker, but exploitation requires a victim to act (user interaction) and the impact depends on the victim's privileges.
