MITRE ATT&CK

1 technique across 1 tactic: Initial Access

The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up.

Exploitation Conditions

The victim must be authenticated to the WordPress admin area with sufficient privileges to perform the targeted action (e.g., create or modify quizzes). The attacker does not need authentication. The attack requires the victim to interact with a crafted link or webpage (UI:R). No default configuration changes are needed - the flaw exists in the standard plugin installation up to 6.7.0.82.

Impact

CVSS 3.1 score of 4.3 (Low) reflects network attack vector, low attack complexity, no privileges required for the attacker, but required user interaction and only limited integrity impact. EPSS probability is 0.03% (7th percentile), indicating extremely low likelihood of widespread exploitation. No CISA KEV listing or public exploit code exists. This is a low-priority vulnerability for most organizations; however, targeted phishing campaigns could exploit it against individual administrators. The primary risk lies in the possibility of chaining this with other vulnerabilities to elevate impact.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker creates a web page containing a hidden form that performs an action like creating a quiz with malicious content, then entices a logged-in WordPress administrator to visit the page. The victim's browser automatically submits the request, executing the attacker's desired action without the victim's knowledge.

AnalysisAIv1 – Jul 26, 2026

Cross-Site Request Forgery in the Quiz Maker WordPress plugin by Ays Pro up to version 6.7.0.82 allows unauthenticated attackers to perform unauthorized actions on behalf of authenticated site administrators. No active exploitation or public exploit code has been identified, and a vendor patch is available via a later version.

RemediationAI

Upgrade the Quiz Maker plugin to a version later than 6.7.0.82 as per the vendor's patch. No official workaround is provided; however, organizations can mitigate risk by ensuring administrators avoid clicking untrusted links while authenticated to the WordPress admin panel and by implementing Content Security Policy (CSP) to restrict script sources.

Technical ContextAI · show details

This CSRF vulnerability (CWE-352) originates in the Quiz Maker plugin (CPE: cpe:2.3:a:ays-pro:quiz_maker:*:*:*:*:*:wordpress:*:*) where state-changing requests lack proper anti-CSRF tokens. An attacker can craft a malicious request that, if submitted by an authenticated user, performs unintended actions on the target site. The WordPress plugin context amplifies the risk because administrative actions are often reachable once authenticated.
