What to do

  1. Replace it. A closed plugin gets no updates through WordPress, so any hole found from now on stays open.
  2. Deactivate and delete it once you have a replacement (Plugins → Deactivate → Delete). Deleting removes its files; deactivating alone leaves them on the server.
  3. If you ran a vulnerable version and something looks off (spam pages, strange admins, redirects), run the free scan, or have us clean it: Emergency Cleanup, $499.

With WP-CLI, once you have a replacement: wp plugin deactivate wp-hallo-welt && wp plugin delete wp-hallo-welt

Details from the advisory

The WP Hallo Welt plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 1.4. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the 'hallo_welt_seite' function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to update plugin settings and inject malicious web scripts via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link. Due to the insufficient input sanitization and output escaping, this can lead to Stored Cross-Site Scripting.
