CVE-2025-15376

The Stopwords for comments plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 1.1. This is due to missing nonce validation on the 'set_stopwords_for_comments' and 'delete_stopwords_for_comments' functions. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to add or delete stopwords via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.

Summary		(es) El plugin Stopwords for comments para WordPress es vulnerable a falsificación de petición en sitios cruzados en todas las versiones hasta la 1.1, inclusive. Esto se debe a la falta de validación de nonce en las funciones 'set_stopwords_for_comments' y 'delete_stopwords_for_comments'. Esto hace posible que atacantes no autenticados añadan o eliminen stopwords a través de una petición falsificada, siempre que puedan engañar a un administrador del sitio para que realice una acción como hacer clic en un enlace.
