Post deletion via missing apiCall nonce validation
Published Feb 23, 2024 · Updated Apr 8, 2026
Cross-site request forgery in Colibri Page Builder 1.0.253 and earlier allows remote attackers to delete posts via forged requests. The apiCall() function accepts state-changing extend_builder actions without correctly validating a WordPress nonce, exposing image imports, post deletion, and theme-data saves. Exploitation requires an authenticated site administrator to be tricked into submitting the request, and the action runs with that session's authority.
