Summary

CVE-2024-1907 is a Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability affecting the Categorify plugin for WordPress. Versions up to and including 1.0.7.4 are susceptible to this issue. The vulnerability stems from missing or incorrect nonce validation in the 'categorifyAjaxDeleteCategory' function.
