Analysis

AI-generated

Technical impact

A Cross‑Site Request Forgery vulnerability in the WordPress Issuu Panel plugin allows an attacker to submit a malicious payload that is stored on the site and executed for all users as stored XSS, compromising the integrity of the content presented to visitors.

Affected Systems

The vulnerability affects the WordPress Issuu Panel plugin for the operationsissuu “Issuu Panel” product, all versions from the earliest release up to and including 2.1.1.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 7.1 indicates a high‑risk flaw, while the EPSS score of < 1% suggests that exploitation is considered rare. The vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV. The flaw can be triggered using a forged request; an attacker would typically need to exploit an authenticated user’s session or rely on the user to initiate a POST request, a condition inferred from the nature of CSRF attacks.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade the Issuu Panel plugin to a version newer than 2.1.1 that removes the CSRF flaw.
  • If an upgrade is not possible, temporarily deactivate or uninstall the plugin until a patched version is available.
  • Restrict plugin use to administrators with minimum necessary privileges and monitor incoming POST requests for suspicious content.
