AI Analysis

Impact

This vulnerability is present in versions of the OMGF WordPress plugin before 6.3.11. By sending a specially constructed HTTP request that calls the do_optimize action, an attacker can trigger a long server‑side loopback request. Because the action bypasses all authentication and nonce checks, anyone on the public internet can invoke it. The repetitive request loop consumes PHP worker processes until the pool is exhausted, resulting in a denial of service that can render the entire WordPress site unavailable.

Affected Systems

The affected product is the OMGF WordPress plugin, also marketed as GDPR/DSGVO Compliant, Faster Google Fonts. Easy. All installations running a version earlier than 6.3.11 are vulnerable; newer releases contain the fix.

Risk and Exploitability

The EPSS score is not available and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA’s KEV catalog, so there is no publicly known exploitation evidence. However, the lack of authentication requirements and the presence of a resource‑intensive operation make exploitation trivial for remote attackers; no special access or credentials are required. If an attacker succeeds, the site can be taken offline for extended periods, impacting availability and potentially disrupting business and revenue.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Apply the latest version of the OMGF plugin (6.3.11 or newer).
  • If upgrading cannot be performed immediately, configure the web server or reverse proxy to block unauthenticated requests to the do_optimize endpoint, or restrict it to authenticated administrators only.
  • Implement rate‑limiting or a web application firewall rule that limits the number of requests to this endpoint per minute from a single IP.
