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

Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires only that the target run the OMGF plugin at a version before 6.3.11 with the affected action reachable; per the description the action requires neither authentication nor a valid nonce, so no login, user interaction, or non-default configuration is needed against a default install. The limiting factors are environmental rather than access-based: realized impact depends on the site's PHP worker pool size and web-server concurrency limits - sites with large worker pools, rate limiting, a WAF in front, or outbound loopback requests disabled are harder to take down, while small shared-hosting PHP-FPM pools are trivially exhausted. Impact is confined to availability; no data is exposed or altered.

Impact

All available signals converge on a genuine but bounded availability risk. The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H, base 7.5) describes a remotely reachable, low-complexity, unauthenticated flaw with high availability impact and no confidentiality or integrity impact - consistent with the CWE-400 resource-exhaustion DoS described. A vendor patch (6.3.11) is confirmed available, which lowers residual risk for patched sites. No EPSS score, no CISA KEV listing, and no public POC are present in the provided intelligence, so there is no evidence of active or imminent widespread exploitation; this is a high-CVSS issue driven entirely by availability impact, not a confirmed in-the-wild threat. The main caveat: resource-exhaustion DoS flaws of this type are typically straightforward to weaponize once the unauthenticated endpoint is identified, so the gap between 'no known POC' and 'trivially exploitable' is narrow. EPSS is absent (not low), so no probabilistic exploitation inference can be drawn - treat exploitation likelihood as unquantified rather than low.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An unauthenticated attacker repeatedly invokes the OMGF action that triggers a slow server-side loopback HTTP request, with no authentication or nonce check to stop them. Each request ties up a PHP worker for the duration of the loopback, and a modest volume of concurrent requests exhausts the PHP-FPM/worker pool, rendering the entire WordPress site unresponsive. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, but the AV:N/AC:L/PR:N profile means the attack needs only crafted HTTP requests and no special tooling or access.

AnalysisAIv1 – Oct 02, 2026

Unauthenticated denial of service in the OMGF WordPress plugin before 6.3.11 allows remote attackers to invoke an action that issues a slow server-side loopback request, exhausting the site's PHP worker pool and potentially making the entire site unavailable. The affected action requires neither authentication nor a valid nonce, so no login or user interaction is needed on a default install. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and a vendor patch (6.3.11) is available per the advisory.

RemediationAI

Vendor-released patch: update OMGF to version 6.3.11 or later. Upgrade via the WordPress plugin admin or by deploying the patched release from the vendor; this removes the unauthenticated loopback resource-consumption path. If immediate upgrade is not possible, disable the OMGF plugin, which stops the vulnerable action but also removes Google Fonts optimization and GDPR functionality. As a compensating control, place rate limiting or WAF rules in front of the plugin's AJAX/REST endpoints, including wp-admin/admin-ajax.php, to throttle repeated unauthenticated calls; this may not fully prevent worker exhaustion and can affect legitimate plugin traffic. Restricting server-originated loopback requests can reduce the impact described by the assessment, but it may break WP-Cron and other plugins that rely on loopback, so test carefully. Monitor PHP-FPM worker saturation and site availability during any partial mitigation. See https://wpscan.com/vulnerability/be25f7b5-5790-4db7-9056-b43b538a7183/.

Technical ContextAI · show details

OMGF is a WordPress plugin that optimizes and locally hosts Google Fonts for GDPR/DSGVO compliance. The flaw is CWE-400 uncontrolled resource consumption: an unauthenticated action in versions before 6.3.11 triggers a server-side loopback HTTP request that is slow or held open, consuming PHP-FPM workers while they wait. Because the request is loopback, it originates from the web server against itself and can tie up the same worker pool needed to serve normal pages. The CVSS 3.1 vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H confirms remote, low-complexity, unauthenticated exploitation with high availability impact only; no confidentiality or integrity impact is assessed. No CPE strings were supplied, so affected scope is defined by the EUVD version range for the OMGF plugin.

DescriptionCVE.org

The OMGF | GDPR/DSGVO Compliant, Faster Google Fonts. Easy. WordPress plugin before 6.3.11 does not require authentication or a valid nonce on an action that issues a slow server-side loopback request, allowing unauthenticated attackers to exhaust the site's PHP worker pool and make the entire site unavailable.

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

A flaw in the OMGF WordPress plugin (versions before 6.3.11) lets a remote request trigger a slow server-side loopback call that can exhaust the site's PHP worker pool and render the entire website unavailable. Any business unit relying on WordPress-hosted marketing sites, customer portals, or internal tools running an affected version is exposed to unplanned downtime and the reputational and revenue consequences that follow. A vendor fix exists, so this is primarily a patch-timing and asset-inventory problem rather than an unresolved technical one.

Business Impact: High
Compensating Controls

Apply vendor patch.
