AI Analysis

Impact

The TITLE ANIMATOR plugin for WordPress contains a Cross‑Site Request Forgery flaw that removes nonce validation from its settings page. This deficiency permits an attacker who can persuade a site administrator to click a crafted link to alter any of the plugin's configuration options. Although the change does not grant arbitrary code execution, it can modify visible site features or weaken security posture by enabling malicious options.

Affected Systems

The vulnerability exists in all releases of the TITLE ANIMATOR plugin by arkapravamajumder up to and including version 1.0. No further version details are publicly listed.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 4.3 indicates moderate risk, while the EPSS score of less than 1% suggests exploitation probability is very low. The flaw is not listed in CISA’s KEV catalog. Attackers must first coerce a logged‑in administrator into performing an action that submits the forged request; no privileged access or network compromise is required. Once the CSRF attack succeeds, the attacker can change settings until the plugin is updated or the flaw is mitigated.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade the TITLE ANIMATOR plugin to the latest version that includes nonce validation on its settings form.
  • If an immediate upgrade is not possible, disable or delete the plugin from the WordPress site to eliminate the risk.
  • Review all configured settings and re‑apply any that were changed or reset them to secure values.
  • Add a review process for all plugin updates and ensure that only trusted, updated plugins are enabled.
  • Implement site‑wide logout or session invalidation upon administrative changes to mitigate potential CSRF exploitation.
