Contact deletion via missing nonce validation
Published Sep 12, 2024 · Updated Sep 12, 2024
Cross-site request forgery in Easy Property Listings 3.5.3 and earlier allows remote attackers to delete contacts through a forged request. The process_bulk_action() function accepts bulk-delete contact identifiers without validating a WordPress nonce before performing deletion. Exploitation requires a logged-in administrator to open an attacker-controlled link, and the resulting action deletes selected contact records.
