The Ninja Forms – The Contact Form Builder That Grows With You plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in versions up to, and including, 3.12.0. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation when exporting CSV files. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to delete those files granted they can trick an administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
