AI Analysis

Impact

Cross-Site Request Forgery allows an attacker to send a malicious request that behaves like an authorized user, potentially inserting JavaScript into the site content. The vulnerability, a known weak point identified as CWE-352, can lead to a stored cross-site scripting condition whereby any visitor to the compromised site receives and executes attacker‑supplied code, exposing them to data theft, defacement, or further phishing. The likely attack path involves forging a request to the Content Security Policy Pro plugin’s endpoint that does not properly verify the request origin or a valid CSRF token, leading to the malicious payload being saved in the database.

Affected Systems

Vendors affected are thapa.laxman; the product is the Content Security Policy Pro WordPress plugin. All releases up to and including version 1.3.5 contain the flaw. No other versions are currently documented as affected.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 7.1 reflects a moderate‑to‑high severity, while the EPSS score of less than 1% indicates a low probability of exploitation at the current time. The vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, suggesting no confirmed active exploitation yet. An attacker would need the ability to send requests with administrative privileges or to trick a privileged user into confirming a form, after which the malicious content would be stored and later served to site visitors. Given the moderate severity and low exploitation likelihood, monitoring and patching remain the best defenses.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade the Content Security Policy Pro plugin to a release newer than 1.3.5, which removes the CSRF vector that enables stored XSS.
  • If an immediate patch is not possible, restrict access to the plugin’s administrative features to only essential users and verify that every form interaction demands a valid CSRF token before processing.
  • Deploy a Web Application Firewall rule that flags or blocks anomalous POST requests directed at the plugin’s endpoints, providing an extra layer to detect and stop forged submissions.
