Summary
CVE-2023-2497 is a vulnerability affecting the UserPro plugin for WordPress. This issue allows unauthenticated attackers to execute Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) attacks on versions up to 5.1.0. The root cause is insufficient nonce validation on the 'import_settings' function. As a result, attackers can exploit PHP Object Injection via unserialize() of user-supplied data.
