(from the vendor's homepage)
5. VULNERABILITY DETAILS
========================
The plugin offers the ajax action "qsm_remove_file_fd_question" which is used to
delete uploaded media contents from the WordPress instance. However, the
functionality is not protected by an anti-CSRF token/nonce.
Since there is no anti-CSRF token protecting this functionality, it is vulnerable
to Cross-Site Request Forgery attacks allowing an attacker to delete uploaded
media contents on behalf of the attacked user.
To successfully exploit this vulnerability, a user with the right to access the
plugin must be tricked into visiting an arbitrary website while having an
authenticated session in the application.
6. PROOF OF CONCEPT
===================
The following Proof-of-Concept would delete the uploaded media with the ID "1":
<html>

<form action="http://localhost/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php" method="POST">
