Summary

The YOP Poll plugin for WordPress up to version 7.0.10 is vulnerable to Origin Validation Error. The plugin transmits a wp_rest nonce to window.opener via postMessage() with a wildcard targetOrigin. This allows unauthenticated attackers to steal a REST nonce scoped to a logged-in Administrator and use it to change the Administrator's email address and password, resulting in full account takeover. The Administrator must open an attacker-controlled page.

Risk Assessment

An attacker can take over the administrator account, potentially leading to full compromise of the WordPress site.

Recommendation

Update the YOP Poll plugin to the latest version that includes the fix.
