bbPress v 1.0.2 CSRF
This exploit allows an attacker to change the display name, email address, and role of a user in bbPress v 1.0.2. The attacker can craft a malicious HTML page that contains a form with hidden fields that contain the new values for the user. When the victim visits the malicious page, the form is automatically submitted and the user's information is changed.
Mitigation:
Implementing a CSRF token in the form that is checked on the server side can prevent this attack.
