What it is

The MCP Server for WordPress WordPress plugin before 1.8.2 does not correctly verify the WordPress REST API nonce for cookie-authenticated requests when a condition an attacker can influence is present, allowing unauthenticated attackers to perform administrator-only actions, including creating a new administrator account, by tricking a logged-in administrator into visiting a crafted page.
