Description The ImageRecycle pdf & image compression plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 3.1.13. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the stopOptimizeAll function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to modify image optimization settings via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
