Security Vulnerability in Spam protection, AntiSpam, FireWall by CleanTalk

April 11, 2022 By John Leave a Comment

The Wordfence Threat Intelligence team has reported on two separate vulnerabilities in Spam protection, AntiSpam, FireWall by CleanTalk, a WordPress plugin with over 100,000 installations. These were both reflected Cross-Site scripting vulnerabilities which could be used for site takeover if an attacker could successfully trick a site administrator into performing an action, such as clicking a link.

We strongly recommend updating to the latest version available, 5.174.1, as soon as possible.

For more information, please check the official public release.
