Cross-Site Request Forgery in the Mang Board WP WordPress plugin (versions ≤ 2.3.8) allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to perform unauthorized admin-level actions by tricking an authenticated site administrator into visiting a malicious page. Because the plugin's state-changing endpoints lack WordPress nonce verification, the victim's browser automatically submits forged requests using the administrator's active session, yielding high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact over plugin-managed board content. No public exploit code has been identified and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV at the time of analysis.
Cookie forgery in the Mang Board WP WordPress plugin (≤2.3.7) enables any subscriber-level account holder to forge administrator authentication cookies and change the administrator password, resulting in complete WordPress site takeover. The flaw originates in `mbw_get_hash_key()`, which generates HMAC material from the currently logged-in user's identity rather than the username embedded in the cookie under validation, while `mbw_validate_auth_cookie()` performs insufficient verification - allowing the forged cookie to pass as legitimate. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis and no CISA KEV listing is present, but the CVSS 8.8 score accurately reflects the low privilege bar required and full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact.
Unauthenticated stored or reflected Cross-Site Scripting in the Mang Board WP WordPress plugin (versions 2.3.4 and earlier) allows network-accessible attackers to inject malicious JavaScript without any credentials, executing arbitrary script in victims' browser sessions upon page interaction. The CVSS scope change (S:C) confirms the attack crosses into the victim browser's security context, enabling session hijacking, credential theft, or unauthorized actions performed as the victim. No public exploit code or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis, but the low-complexity, zero-authentication attack path represents a meaningful risk for any WordPress site running the affected plugin.
Reflected Cross-Site Scripting in the Mang Board WP WordPress plugin (all versions through 2.3.4) allows unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary JavaScript via the unsanitized 'stag' parameter, which executes in the browser of any user who clicks a crafted link. Wordfence's source-level analysis identifies the flaw spanning multiple plugin files including _header.php, func.board.php, and class.store.php. No active exploitation has been identified (not in CISA KEV) and no EPSS score was provided, but the PR:N/UI:R profile makes this a viable phishing-assisted attack against WordPress site administrators and editors.
