Attack profile from CVSS 3.1 · CISA ADP. Fix status from CNA. Impact type from CWE-352.
Summary
The Patreon WordPress plugin before 1.10.0 does not verify a nonce when it connects the site to a Patreon account. An attacker can make a logged-in administrator re-link the site's Patreon integration to an attacker-controlled account through a crafted request (CSRF-type weakness, CWE-352). The attack requires user interaction, since the administrator must visit a page the attacker controls, and it allows takeover of the site's Patreon integration.
