CVE-2024-1912 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 inadequate nonce validation on the "categorifyAjaxUpdateFolderPosition" function, which allows unauthenticated attackers to manipulate the folder position of categories and update metadata for other taxonomies.
