## Description

The Five Star Restaurant Menu and Food Ordering plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery via the order status update handler of the 'fdm-menu' shortcode in versions 2.1.0 up to, and including, 2.6.1, due to missing nonce validation in the fdm_possible_order_status_update() function. The function changes an order's status from the GET parameters 'fdm_action=update_status', 'order_id' and 'status' and checks only the manage_fdm_orders capability. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to change the status of arbitrary orders via a forged request, granted they can trick a logged-in user with order management permissions into clicking a link or loading a page.
