Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires that a privileged user (typically a logged-in WordPress administrator) with an active authenticated session be tricked into interacting with attacker-controlled content (UI:R) - e.g., clicking a crafted link or loading a malicious page - while the targeted VikRentCar action lacks anti-CSRF nonce validation. Limiting factors: the attack cannot succeed without this authenticated victim interaction, so it is not purely unauthenticated despite PR:N; it depends on the victim being logged in at the time, on the absence/bypass of WordPress nonce protection in the vulnerable 1.4.8-and-earlier code, and on the site actually running the VikRentCar plugin. The attacker cannot read the response, limiting data exfiltration.

Impact

The input CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H, base 8.8) scores this high, but the signals do not all point the same way and the triple-High impact is characteristic of Patchstack's generous CSRF scoring rather than an independently verifiable outcome. The flaw is CWE-352 (CSRF), which by definition requires UI:R - a logged-in privileged user (typically a WordPress administrator) must be lured into triggering a forged request - so despite PR:N and AV:N this is not drive-by, unauthenticated-at-will exploitation; it is conditional on social engineering of a privileged victim. No EPSS score was provided, the vulnerability is NOT in CISA KEV, and no POC or exploit code is referenced, so exploitation status is 'no public exploit identified at time of analysis.' There is no SSVC decision data in the input. Net: this is a moderate real-world priority - genuinely exploitable but gated on tricking an authenticated admin, not a mass-exploitable network bug. CONFLICT TO VERIFY: the C:H rating is questionable because classic CSRF does not return response data to the attacker (the attacker cannot read confidential output), so confidentiality impact is likely overstated - verify actual impact with the Patchstack advisory.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker crafts a malicious web page or email containing a forged request targeting a VikRentCar admin action and lures a logged-in WordPress administrator into visiting it. Because the plugin does not validate an anti-CSRF nonce, the victim's browser submits the request with valid session cookies, causing an unwanted state-changing action (e.g., modifying plugin settings or booking data) under the admin's authority. No public exploit code is identified at time of analysis; the attack requires user interaction (UI:R) by a privileged victim.

AnalysisAIv1 – Oct 20, 2026

Cross-site request forgery in the WordPress VikRentCar plugin through 1.4.8 can make a logged-in privileged user-typically a WordPress administrator-submit unintended VikRentCar actions when tricked into visiting attacker-controlled content. The supplied CVSS 3.1 score is 8.8 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R), but the authoritative assessment constrains realistic impact to integrity only (C:N/I:L/A:N) because the attacker cannot read responses and must rely on victim interaction. No CISA KEV entry or public exploit code was identified in the provided data.

RemediationAI

No vendor-released patch with an exact fixed version is identified in the provided data. The primary remediation is to deactivate and remove VikRentCar until an updated release is available, then upgrade to the vendor-fixed version once published. If removal is not feasible, restrict /wp-admin and VikRentCar administrative endpoints to trusted IPs or VPN access, require MFA for administrators, and add WAF rules to block cross-origin state-changing VikRentCar requests lacking expected Referer/Origin or nonce; these are compensating controls, not a fix, can break legitimate administrative workflows, and do not correct the missing nonce validation. Monitor the Patchstack advisory at https://patchstack.com/database/wordpress/plugin/vikrentcar/vulnerability/wordpress-vikrentcar-plugin-1-4-8-cross-site-request-forgery-csrf-vulnerability?_s_id=cve for patch details.

Technical ContextAI · show details

VikRentCar is a WordPress plugin from e4jvikwp; the CPE cpe:2.3:a:e4jvikwp:vikrentcar:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* is a wildcard matching VikRentCar releases, while the CVE description bounds affected versions through 1.4.8. CWE-352 describes state-changing requests being accepted without a valid anti-CSRF token or nonce. In WordPress, nonces bind actions to a user session and request context; vulnerable VikRentCar code in 1.4.8 and earlier apparently lacks adequate validation, allowing an attacker page to cause an authenticated administrator to perform unintended actions. Although the CVSS vector has PR:N and UI:R, successful exploitation still depends on a logged-in privileged victim being tricked into interacting with attacker-controlled content, so it is not a no-interaction unauthenticated compromise, and the inability to read responses limits data exfiltration.

Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in e4jvikwp VikRentCar vikrentcar allows Cross Site Request Forgery.This issue affects VikRentCar: from n/a through 1.4.8.

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

The WordPress VikRentCar plugin through version 1.4.8 contains a high-severity cross-site request forgery flaw that can cause logged-in privileged users, typically WordPress administrators, to submit unintended VikRentCar actions after visiting attacker-controlled content. The CVSS vector indicates an unauthenticated attacker with required user interaction, and the authoritative assessment limits realistic impact to integrity only, so the primary business concern is unauthorized changes to rental-car configuration or booking data rather than data disclosure or service disruption. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and no vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis, so organizations running the plugin should treat exposed administrative workflows as an integrity and governance risk.

Business Impact: Medium
Compensating Controls

No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis; interim mitigations include restricting wp-admin access to trusted networks, enforcing MFA for administrators, disabling or removing VikRentCar if not required, deploying WAF or virtual patching rules that enforce CSRF validation on VikRentCar admin endpoints, reviewing administrator actions and VikRentCar configuration changes, and applying least privilege.
