RapidLoad Power-Up for Autoptimize <= 1.7.1 - Cross-Site Request Forgery via 'clear_page_cache'
Publisher and source text is retained separately from QFinch interpretation.
QFinch assessment
The RapidLoad Power-Up for Autoptimize plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in versions up to, and including, 1.7.1. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the clear_page_cache function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to clear the plugin's cache via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
