CVE info copied to clipboard

Summary

The Social Auto Poster plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in versions up to, and including, 5.3.14. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on multiple functions. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to add, modify, or delete post meta and plugin options.

Impact

This vulnerability allows unauthenticated attackers to perform unauthorized actions on behalf of authenticated users. Potential impacts include: 1. Unauthorized addition, modification, or deletion of post meta data. 2. Unauthorized changes to plugin options. 3. Potential for attackers to manipulate the content and functionality of the affected WordPress site. 4. Compromise of data integrity and potentially site operations.

Exploitation

There is no evidence that a public proof-of-concept exists. There is no evidence of proof of exploitation at the moment.

Patch

A patch is not explicitly mentioned in the provided information. However, given that the vulnerability affects versions up to and including 5.3.14 of the Social Auto Poster plugin, it's likely that updating to a version newer than 5.3.14 (if available) would address this vulnerability.

Mitigation

1. Update the Social Auto Poster plugin to a version newer than 5.3.14 if available. 2. If an update is not available, consider temporarily disabling the Social Auto Poster plugin until a patch is released. 3. Implement proper CSRF protection mechanisms, including correct nonce validation for all relevant functions. 4. Monitor WordPress and plugin logs for any suspicious activities. 5. Educate users about the risks of clicking on unknown links, especially when logged into the WordPress admin panel. 6. Consider implementing additional security measures such as Web Application Firewalls (WAF) to help mitigate CSRF attacks.
