AI Analysis

Impact

The vulnerability is a Cross‑Site Request Forgery flaw in the Erik AntiSpam for Contact Form 7 plugin. It permits an attacker to craft a request that causes a legitimate authenticated user to unknowingly perform privileged actions on the site, potentially altering or deleting contact form entries or other settings. The weakness corresponds to CWE‑352, indicating missing or inadequate CSRF protection.

Affected Systems

The issue affects the WordPress AntiSpam for Contact Form 7 plugin by Erik. Versions from any released version up through and including 0.6.3 are vulnerable. Administrators using any of these releases are at risk.

Risk and Exploitability

The published CVSS score of 5.4 represents moderate severity, and the EPSS score of less than 1 % suggests a low likelihood of widespread exploitation. The vulnerability is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog. An attacker would launch the attack from an external malicious site that lures a logged‑in user to submit a forged request to the vulnerable endpoint, taking advantage of the missing CSRF token.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Update the AntiSpam for Contact Form 7 plugin to a version newer than 0.6.3; if a newer release is not yet available, contact Erik for a fix or temporarily disable the plugin entirely.
  • If an immediate update is impossible, block or restrict the vulnerable endpoint by whitelisting trusted IP addresses or enforcing stricter authentication before allowing form submissions.
  • Implement a site‑wide CSRF protection mechanism, such as ensuring all forms use WordPress nonces or custom tokens that must be validated before processing requests.
