Unauthenticated Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF) in pCloud WP Backup <= 2.0.2 versions.

AnalysisAI

Cross-Site Request Forgery in the pCloud WP Backup WordPress plugin (versions 2.0.2 and earlier) allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to trick a logged-in administrator into submitting forged requests, leading to high-confidentiality impact and limited integrity impact on the WordPress site. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 7.1 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R), reflecting network exploitation with no attacker privileges but required victim interaction. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and the flaw is not listed in CISA KEV.

Technical ContextAI

The affected component is pCloud WP Backup, a WordPress plugin (vendor ploudapp per CPE cpe:2.3:a:ploudapp:pcloud_wp_backup) that integrates the pCloud cloud storage service to back up WordPress sites. The root cause is CWE-352 (Cross-Site Request Forgery): one or more state-changing plugin actions accept requests without validating a WordPress anti-CSRF nonce or equivalent token, so the plugin cannot distinguish a legitimate admin-initiated request from one forged by an attacker's page. Because WordPress relies on nonce verification (check_admin_referer / wp_verify_nonce) to bind privileged actions to an authenticated session, a missing or improper nonce check on a backup/configuration endpoint lets attacker-controlled HTML/JS drive that action using the victim's authenticated cookies.

RemediationAI

No vendor-released patch version is identified in the provided data, so the primary recommendation is to consult the Patchstack advisory (https://patchstack.com/database/wordpress/plugin/pcloud-wp-backup/vulnerability/wordpress-pcloud-wp-backup-plugin-2-0-2-cross-site-request-forgery-csrf-vulnerability) and upgrade to a fixed release once published; if a version above 2.0.2 is available in the WordPress plugin repository, update to it immediately. Until a patch is confirmed, deactivate the pCloud WP Backup plugin if backup functionality is not actively required (trade-off: scheduled pCloud backups stop). As compensating controls, restrict wp-admin access to trusted IP ranges or place it behind additional authentication to reduce the chance an admin session is abused, and deploy a WAF or WordPress security plugin with CSRF/referrer protections on plugin admin endpoints (trade-off: possible false positives on legitimate admin actions). Administrators should also avoid clicking untrusted links while logged into WordPress, since victim interaction is required.
