Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in Michael Cannon Custom Bulk/Quick Edit allows Cross Site Request Forgery. This issue affects Custom Bulk/Quick Edit: from n/a through 1.6.10.
AnalysisAI
Cross-site request forgery in the WordPress plugin Custom Bulk/Quick Edit up to version 1.6.10 allows an attacker to trick an authenticated administrator into performing unauthorized bulk edit actions on posts or settings. The flaw resides in missing CSRF protection on plugin actions. No active exploitation or public exploit code is known, and the EPSS score is very low (0.03%), indicating limited real-world risk.
Technical ContextAI
Custom Bulk/Quick Edit is a WordPress plugin that extends the bulk editing capabilities of the WordPress admin panel. The vulnerability is a classic Cross-Site Request Forgery (CWE-352) where the plugin does not validate a nonce or referrer for state-changing requests. An attacker can craft a malicious request that, when submitted by a logged-in admin (e.g., via a link in an email or a hidden form on a page they visit), executes an unwanted bulk edit operation. This is a failure of the 'confused deputy' trust model of web applications. The CPE string indicates the affected software is 'custom-bulkquick-edit' (the plugin slug) for WordPress.
RemediationAI
Update the Custom Bulk/Quick Edit plugin to a version higher than 1.6.10. If no patched release is yet available, consider temporarily disabling the plugin until a fix is issued. As a compensating control, a Web Application Firewall can block CSRF attempts targeting the vulnerable endpoint. Administrators should also avoid clicking untrusted links while logged into the WordPress dashboard. Adding a CSRF token validation mechanism via a separate security plugin or custom code can mitigate the risk, but may have performance or compatibility impacts. The Patchstack advisory (linked in references) should be monitored for the exact fixed version.
