## Overview

This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to opt an affected site into usage statistics collection via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.

## Affected

- `ninja_forms < 3.12.1`

## Remediation

Upgrade past the affected range:

- `ninja_forms 3.12.1`
