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 attacker must trick an authenticated WordPress administrator into clicking a malicious link or visiting a crafted page while logged into the WordPress admin panel. No special configuration is required; the vulnerability exists in default installations of the plugin up to version 5.3.58. The attack is unauthenticated from the attacker's perspective but requires the victim to have admin privileges. |
| Impact | The CVSS score is 4.3 (Medium) with vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N, indicating a network-attackable, low-complexity vulnerability that requires user interaction and results in low integrity impact with no confidentiality or availability impact. The EPSS score is 0.03% (percentile 7%), suggesting a very low probability of exploitation in the wild. There is no mention of CISA KEV or public exploit code. The SSVC decision would likely be 'Medium' due to low exploitation status and automatable? (likely not automatable as it requires user interaction). Overall, this is a low-priority issue for most environments. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker crafts a malicious link or webpage that, when clicked by an authenticated WordPress administrator, triggers a forged request to change a form's calculation logic or delete form data. The attack requires the victim to be logged in and interact with the malicious content. |
